The 3'-tail of a forked-duplex sterically determines whether one or two DNA strands pass through the central channel of a replication-fork helicase.

Abstract：

:DnaB helicase is a ring-shaped hexamer that unwinds DNA at a replication fork. To understand how this protein interacts with DNA during unwinding, DnaB from Thermus aquaticus was incubated with chemically modified forked-duplex DNA substrates and the unwinding rates were measured. Unwinding was inhibited by modifications made to the 5'-tail, but not the 3'-tail, suggesting that the helicase interacts with the 5'-tail but not the 3'-tail during unwinding. Using oligonucleotides of mixed polarity, it was confirmed that DnaB translocates in the 5' to 3' direction as it unwinds DNA. A substrate was synthesized that contained two duplexes in tandem. Experiments involving various modifications of this tandem duplex demonstrated that when the 3'-tail is short, two stands of DNA pass through the central channel of DnaB with no resultant unwinding. Thus, the role of the 3'-tail in stimulating unwinding has been elucidated. The 3'-tail does not bind to DnaB during unwinding, but sterically determines whether one or two DNA strands pass through the central channel of DnaB. Furthermore, a new substrate for DnaB locomotion has been discovered. DnaB may actively translocate in the 5' to 3' direction along single-stranded DNA, even when a complementary strand is also present within the protein's central channel. This new mode of action may regulate DnaB activity by inhibiting unwinding at regions of DNA that are not forked. Furthermore, this new function for DnaB may coordinate abortion of leading and lagging strand replication if a nick is encountered on the leading strand.
