EMSA Analysis of DNA Binding By Rgg Proteins
In bacteria, interaction of various proteins with DNA is essential for the regulation of specific target gene expression. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) is an in vitro approach allowing for the visualization of these protein-DNA interactions.

Electrical Probes of DNA-Binding Proteins [PDF]
A DNA electrochemistry platform has been developed to probe proteins bound to DNA electrically. Here gold electrodes are modified with thiol-modified DNA, and DNA charge transport chemistry is used to probe DNA binding and enzymatic reaction both with redox-silent and redox-active proteins.

Method of Detecting and Targeting Mutations in Cancer [PDF]
While there are many differences between tumor and non-tumor cells, the basic underlying distinction is in the DNA. Tumor cells harbor mutations, at least some of which are not present in non-tumor cells.

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Phosphorylation of Adenovirus DNA-binding Protein
Evidence is presented here which indicates that the adenovirus DNA-binding protein (DBP) is phosphorylated at a tyrosine residue early in infection. This was suggested by the discovery that a proportion of the label in 32P-labelled DBP was resistant to alkali, and was substantiated by acid hydrolysis of DBP immunoprecipitates and by immunoblotting with

DNA Binding in High Salt: Analysing the Salt Dependence of Replication Protein A3 from the Halophile Haloferax volcanii [PDF]
Halophilic archaea maintain intracellular salt concentrations close to saturation to survive in high-salt environments and their cellular processes have adapted to function under these conditions.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Preferential binding of hot spot mutant p53 proteins to supercoiled DNA in vitro and in cells.
Hot spot mutant p53 (mutp53) proteins exert oncogenic gain-of-function activities. Binding of mutp53 to DNA is assumed to be involved in mutp53-mediated repression or activation of several mutp53 target genes.

Grafting Miniature DNA Binding Proteins [PDF]
Miniature proteins serve as leads for biological and medicinal applications by positioning all amino acids necessary for biomolecular recognition on a compact protein structure. Protein grafting was recently used to create miniature helical proteins with high DNA binding affinity and specificity.
