Table 1. Apparent dissociation constants for UvsX binding to dsDNA or ssDNAa.
Other Ligands Present | Apparent Kd (nM) | |
dsDNA | ssDNA | |
None | 46±18 | Not boundb |
ATP | 170±60 | 760±140 |
ATPγS | 230±50 | 740±90 |
ATP+homologous ssDNA | 1050±300 | |
ATP+heterologous ssDNA | N.D.c | |
ATP+homologous dsDNA | ≤750d |
No binding observed under the experimental conditions used.
Not Determined. Measuring the apparent Kd for dsDNA in the presence of ATP and heterologous ssDNA requires unattainably high protein concentrations.
Based on observation in Figure 4 that homologous dsDNA does not destabilize UvsX-ssDNA interactions.
