Imino proton assignments in the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of the lambda phage OR3 deoxyribonucleic acid fragment

Imino proton assignments in the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of the lambda phage OR3 deoxyribonucleic acid fragment

E L Ulrich et al. Biochemistry. .

Abstract

The 17 base pair duplex d(TATCACCGCAAGGGATAp) . d(TATCCCTTGCGGTGATAp) corresponding to the OR3 operator site of lambda phage has been synthesized and studied by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 470 MHz. The 13 imino proton resonances observed at 20 degrees C have been assigned to specific base pairs at positions 3-15 on the basis of nuclear Overhauser effect measurements and studies of the temperature dependence of peak intensities. Resonances from the A-T base pairs at positions 1, 2, 16, and 17 are assumed to be absent from the spectrum because of terminal fraying. Resonance from many of the base pairs suggested by Ohlendorf et al. [Ohlendorf, D. H., Anderson, W. F., Fisher, R. G., Takeda, Y., & Matthews, B. W. (1982) Nature (London) 298, 718-723] to be involved in specific binding of the lambda phage cro repressor are well resolved.
