Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book focuses on the DNA viruses in the human population that are associated with cancers. It covers most of the viruses that are thought to contribute to human malignancy. This book represents a comprehensive review of the field of DNA tumor virology. Right now, while there are books out there that cover individual viruses that are also covered in this book, there is no single book that covers this topic comprehensively. This book is the first current, comprehensive review of its kind in the market.

Book excerpt: DNA replication is an essential process of cell division required in order to maintain genomic integrity of all dividing cells. Although advancements have been made toward further understanding of this process, much is still unknown about the mechanisms underlying DNA replication, especially in mammalian systems. Eukaryotic DNA replication is a tightly regulated and complex process involving a myriad of proteins and numerous origins. Due to this complexity Simian Virus 40 (SV40) is used as a model system to simplify the investigation of the function of individual protein components. The replication of SV40 DNA employs one multifunctional viral protein, large T-antigen (T-ag). Many structural and genetic studies have provided a wealth of information about T-ag; however much remains unknown about the specific interactions between T-ag, DNA and replication factors and the precise sequence of events during replication. SV40 large T-ag is a multidomain protein that functions in origin recognition and unwinding events during initiation of SV40 DNA replication. The Origin Binding Domain (OBD) of T-ag plays a critical role during initiation to position T-ag on the origin through the use of a DNA binding motif consisting of A1 and B2 loops. After origin recognition, T-ag forms a double hexamer over the origin. Within each hexamer, the OBD adopts a lock washer structure where the origin recognizing A1 and B2 loops face towards the helicase domain and likely become unavailable for DNA binding. New surfaces of the OBD monomers are positioned along the DNA axis during hexamer formation. The role of the central channel of the OBD hexamer in DNA replication was investigated by analyzing the effects of mutations of residues lining the channel. All mutants showed binding defects with origin DNA and ssDNA especially at low protein concentrations, but only half were defective at supporting DNA replication in vitro. All mutants were normal in unwinding linear origin DNA fragments. However, replication defective mutants failed to unwind a small origin containing circular DNA whereas replication competent mutants did so normally. The presence of RPA and/or pol/prim restored circular DNA unwinding activity of compromised mutants probably by interacting with the separated DNA strands on the T-ag surface. The addition of RPA also recovered the ability of replication deficient mutants to support initiation and complete DNA replication in vitro. The addition of pol/prim resulted in the greatest recovery of mutant activity in minicircle unwinding and initiation. Compared to other polymerases tested, pol/prim was the only polymerase able to rescue mutant activity to WT levels indicated that this stimulation is specific to pol/prim. Of the four subunits of the pol/prim complex that could be responsible for stimulating mutant activity, the p180 subunit appeared to be active in recovering circular DNA unwinding. These results indicated a role for the OBD central channel in binding and threading ssDNA during unwinding of circular SV40 DNA. Mixing mutant and WT T-ag in minicircle unwinding assays suggested that only one monomer in an OBD hexamer was necessary for DNA unwinding. Results allowed for the development of a model of DNA threading through the T-ag complex illustrating how single stranded DNA could pass close to a trough generated by key residues in one monomer of the OBD hexamer.

This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I report in this dissertation that residues lining the small tier of the central channel have an important role in DNA binding, especially in single-stranded DNA binding. Defects in helicase activity for the small tier channel mutants can be accounted by their corresponding defects in DNA binding. One of the large tier central channel mutants (R456A) showed a defect in unwinding of origin DNA, but this could not be attributed to a problem in DNA binding. Combined with the results of others, it appears that the large tier is primarily involved in unwinding origin DNA. These findings are incorporated into a model of T antigen helicase activity where single-stranded DNA is looped out of one hexamer through hydrophilic side-channels in the large tier of the hexamer. The looped-out single-stranded DNA runs back into the origin binding domain of the adjacent hexamer. In this model, there is one strand of DNA within each small tier during DNA unwinding from the origin. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).
