The AT-hook motif in SA1 mediates non-specific DNA binding and subdiffusive dynamics on telomeric T270 DNA substrate. (A) A representative AFM image showing SA1-N (white arrow) binding to T270 DNA. The purple arrows point to the estimated boundaries of the telomeric region. (B) QD conjugation strategy: an antibody-sandwich method for Sumo-tagged SA1-N. (C) Kymographs of QD-labeled SA1-N (green, top panel) and full length SA1 R37A R39A (red, bottom panel) on T270 DNA tightropes. Scale bars (y-axis): 1 μm. (D) Fluorescence anisotropy experiments showing concentration-dependent binding of 3xFlag-tagged SA1 R37A R39A to DNA substrates containing 7 TTAGGG repeats (Tel7, left panel) or scrambled DNA sequences (right panel). The data were from two independent experiments.
