TABLE 1.
Ability of dGTP to inhibit primer rescue and to induce DEC formation
Primer-template | Inhibition of primer rescue (IC50, μM)a ± AD
|
DEC formation (Kd,app, μM)b ± AD | |
---|---|---|---|
ATP dependent | PPi dependent | ||
d4TMP terminated | 0.51 ± 0.07 | 0.72 ± 0.05 | 2.6 ± 1.1 |
ddTMP terminated | 2.6 ± 0.2 | 1.6 ± 0.5 | 7.7 ± 3.8 |
AZTMP terminated | 110 ± 30 | 170 ± 20 | 220 ± 60 |
Reactions were performed as described in the legend of Fig. 2 in the presence of 67/70/215/219 mutant RT, primer-template terminated with the indicated nucleotide analogue and various concentrations of dGTP. The IC50s were determined as shown in Fig. 2A and B.
Electrophoretic mobility shift experiments were performed as described in the text. Kd,app values for DEC formation as a function of dGTP concentration were determined as shown in Fig. 2C. The numbers were obtained from two to three experiments. AD, average deviation.
