Cloning and nucleotide sequence analysis of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAD4 gene required for excision repair of UV-damaged DNA
Abstract
The RAD4 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for the incision step of excision repair. We have cloned the RAD4 gene and determined its nucleotide sequence. RAD4 encodes a somewhat basic protein of 754 amino acids (aa) with an Mr of 87,173. RAD4 contains several groups of 4-7 consecutive basic aa residues that could be involved in DNA binding and it also contains an alpha-helix-turn-alpha-helix motif for DNA binding. Like several other DNA repair proteins of S. cerevisiae, the C terminus of RAD4 protein is highly acidic.
