Transcription termination in the Escherichia coli dnaA gene is not mediated by the internal DnaA box

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1995
DnaA protein is a DNA-binding protein which recognizes a 9-bp consensus sequence called the DnaA box. By binding to DnaA boxes, DnaA protein regulates initiation of chromosomal replication and transcription of several genes. The dnaA gene contains two DnaA boxes, one located in the regulatory region and one within the structural gene. In this paper, we

DnaA initiator—also a transcription factor [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 1997
The replication‐initiator protein DnaA is ubiquitous in the eubacterial world. It binds to an asymmetric 9 bp consensus DNA sequence, the DnaA box. Besides its primary function as an initiator, it acts as a transcription factor that represses or activates several genes, or terminates transcription, depending on the location and arrangement of DnaA ...

Research on DnaA in the early days

open access: yesResearch in Microbiology, 2020
The Escherichia coli chromosome is a circular double helix. DNA polymerase, therefore, cannot use it directly as a template for polymerization until it has first been unwound. The DnaA protein opens the chromosome at a unique and specific site (oriC), which allows the polymerase to begin DNA replication.

The Escherichia coli cryptic prophage protein YfdR binds to DnaA and initiation of chromosomal replication is inhibited by overexpression of the gene cluster yfdQ-yfdR-yfdS-yfdT

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The initiation of bacterial chromosomal replication is regulated by multiple pathways. To explore novel regulators, we isolated multicopy suppressors for the cold-sensitive hda-185 ΔsfiA(sulA) mutant.

Identification of the replication origins from Cyanothece ATCC 51142 and their interactions with the DnaA protein: from in silico to in vitro studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Based on the complete genome of Cyanothece ATCC 51142, the oriCs of both the circular and linear chromosomes in Cyanothece ATCC 51142 have been predicted by utilizing a web-based system Ori-Finder.

Multiplex Modular Nanorobotic Systems with Catalytic Activity under Magnetic Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 48, 15 June 2026.
We present modular nanorobots composed of a magnetic propulsion module and different extension modules carrying functional activities, assembled via DNA base pairing. The system integrates propulsion, optical tracking, enzymatic catalysis, and cell docking in a programmable manner.

Acetylation of Lysine 243 Inhibits the oriC Binding Ability of DnaA in Escherichia coli

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
DNA replication initiation is a central event in the cell cycle, and it is strictly controlled by multiple regulatory mechanisms. Our previous work showed that acetylation of residue lysine (K) 178 prevents DnaA from binding to ATP, which leads to the ...
