Protein which interacts with a stimulatory factor of RNA polymerase II of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells.

Abstract:

:When partially purified Ehrlich ascites tumor RNA polymerase II was further purified on a column of phosphocellulose, stimulation of its catalysis of RNA synthesis by stimulatory factor S-II was greatly decreased. This decrease in sensitivity to the stimulatory factor was reversible: the enzyme eluted from phosphocellulose became sensitive to the factor when mixed with a protein fraction eluted from the phosphocellulose at high salt concentration. Evidence was obtained that this protein, named helper protein, binds, to the enzyme eluted from phosphocellulose, causing it to recover sensitivity to stimulatory factor S-II.

  • Binding of basic peptides to acidic lipids in membranes: effects of inserting alanine(s) between the basic residues.

    abstract::We studied the binding of peptides containing five basic residues to membranes containing acidic lipids. The peptides have five arginine or lysine residues and zero, one, or two alanines between the basic groups. The vesicles were formed from mixtures of a zwitterionic lipid, phosphatidylcholine, and an acidic lipid, ...
