Abstract
Dendrocalamus liboensis Hsueh & D. Z. Li 1985 is a unique member of the Bambusoideae subfamily found in Guizhou, China. The species has both economic importance and ornamental value. This study represents the first report of the sequencing and assembly of the complete chloroplast genome of D. liboensis. The total length of the genome was 139,483 bp, with a conventional quadripartite framework consisting of a large single-copy (LSC) region (83,001 bp in length), a small single-copy (SSC) region (12,896 bp in length), and two inverted repeats (IR) regions (both 21,793 bp in length). Overall, the D. liboensis chloroplast genome contained 128 functional genes, including 83 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis showed that D. liboensis closely resembled D. sapidus, with both found on a strongly supported branch of the phylogenetic tree.

Abstract
Plants of the Agropyron genus are important pasture resources, and they also play important roles in the ecological restoration. Chloroplast genomes are inherited from maternal parents, and they are important for studying species taxonomy and evolution. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genomes of five typical species of the Agropyron genus (eg., A. cristatum × A. desertorum Fisch. Schult, A. desertorum, A. desertorum Fisch. Schult. cv. Nordan, A. michnoi Roshev, and A. mongolicum Keng) using the Illumina NovaSeq platform. We found that these five chloroplast genomes exhibit a typical quadripartite structure with a conserved genome arrangement and structure. Their chloroplast genomes contain the large single-copy regions (LSC, 79,613 bp-79,634 bp), the small single-copy regions (SSC, 12,760 bp-12,768 bp), and the inverted repeat regions (IR, 43,060 bp-43,090 bp). Each of the five chloroplast genomes contains 129 genes, including 38 tRNA genes, eight rRNA genes, and 83 protein-coding genes. Among them, the genes trnG-GCC, matK, petL, ccsA, and rpl32 showed significant nucleotide diversity in these five species, and they may be used as molecular markers in taxonomic studies. Phylogenetic analysis showed that A. mongolicum is closely related to A. michnoi, while others have a closer genetic relationship with the Triticum genus.

Abstract
Escherichia coli DNA Pol I can carry out three enzymatic reactions: It possesses 5' → 3' DNA polymerase activity and 3' → 5' and 5' → 3' exonuclease activity. Pol I can be cleaved by mild treatment with subtilisin into two fragments; the larger fragment is known as the Klenow fragment. The Klenow fragment retains the polymerizing activity and the 3' → 5' exonuclease of the holo-enzyme but lacks its powerful 5' → 3' exonuclease activity. These enzymes and their applications in molecular cloning are introduced here.

Abstract
When the first version of this unit was written in 1995, protein purification of recombinant proteins was based on a variety of standard chromatographic methods and approaches, many of which were described and mentioned throughout Current Protocols in Protein Science. In the interim, there has been a shift toward an almost universal usage of the affinity or fusion tag. This may not be the case for biotechnology manufacture where affinity tags can complicate producing proteins under regulatory conditions. Regardless of the protein expression system, questions are asked as to which and how many affinity tags to use, where to attach them in the protein, and whether to engineer a self-cleavage system or simply leave them on. We will briefly address some of these issues. Also, although this overview focuses on E.coli, protein expression and purification, other commonly used expression systems are mentioned and, apart from cell-breakage methods, protein purification methods and strategies are essentially the same.

Abstract
The updated version of this unit presents an overview of recombinant protein purification with special emphasis on proteins expressed in E. coli. The first section deals with information pertinent to protein purification that can be derived from translation of the cDNA sequence. This is followed by a discussion of common problems associated with bacterial protein expression. A flow chart summarizes approaches for establishing solubility and localization of bacterially produced proteins. Purification strategies for both soluble and insoluble proteins are also reviewed. A section on glycoproteins produced in bacteria in the nonglycosylated state is included to emphasize that, although they may not be useful for in vivo studies, such proteins are well suited for structural studies. Finally, protein handling, scale and aims of purification, and specialized equipment needed for recombinant protein purification and characterization are discussed. The methodologies and approaches described here are essentially suitable for laboratory-scale operations.

Abstract
The Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase I (Taq Pol I) gene was cloned into a plasmid expression vector that utilizes the strong bacteriophage lambda PL promoter. A truncated form of Taq Pol I was also constructed. The two constructs made it possible to compare the full-length 832-amino-acid Taq Pol I and a deletion derivative encoding a 544-amino-acid translation product, the Stoffel fragment. Upon heat induction, the 832-amino-acid construct produced 1-2% of total protein as Taq Pol I. The induced 544-amino-acid construct produced 3% of total protein as Stoffel fragment. Enzyme purification included cell lysis, heat treatment followed by Polymin P precipitation of nucleic acids, phenyl sepharose column chromatography, and heparin-Sepharose column chromatography. For full-length 94-kD Taq Pol I, yield was 3.26 x 10(7) units of activity from 165 grams wet weight cell paste. For the 61-kD Taq Pol I Stoffel fragment, the yield was 1.03 x 10(6) units of activity from 15.6 grams wet weight cell paste. The two enzymes have maximal activity at 75 degrees C to 80 degrees C, 2-4 mM MgCl2 and 10-55 mM KCl. The nature of the substrate determines the precise conditions for maximal enzyme activity. For both proteins, MgCl2 is the preferred cofactor compared to MnCl2, CoCl2, and NiCl2. The full-length Taq Pol I has an activity half-life of 9 min at 97.5 degrees C. The Stoffel fragment has a half-life of 21 min at 97.5 degrees C. Taq Pol I contains a polymerization-dependent 5' to 3' exonuclease activity whereas the Stoffel fragment, deleted for the 5' to 3' exonuclease domain, does not possess that activity. A comparison is made among thermostable DNA polymerases that have been characterized; specific activities of 292,000 units/mg for Taq Pol I and 369,000 units/mg for the Stoffel fragment are the highest reported.

Abstract
We developed an in vitro replication system for ColE2 and ColE3 plasmids using cell extracts prepared from bacteria with or without these plasmids. DNA synthesis depended on host DNA polymerase I and was sensitive to rifampicin and chloramphenicol. Preincubation of the extracts with plasmid DNA, however, allowed replication of template DNA added subsequently in a plasmid-specific manner in the presence of rifampicin and chloramphenicol. The plasmid-specified trans-acting factor(s) was detected in cell extracts from bacteria carrying a recombinant plasmid with the region of ColE2 or ColE3 encoding the Rep protein. The plasmid-specified factor(s) consisted at least in part of protein, probably the Rep protein. In vitro replication started within a region of ColE2 or ColE3 containing the smallest cis-acting segment essential for in vivo replication and proceeded in a fixed direction.

Abstract
Two DNA ligase activities have been separated, purified, and characterized. The resolution of the two enzymes from crude extracts was initially achieved through Polymin P precipitation. The ligation activity precipitating with the nucleic acids on treatment with Polymin P is designated as DNA ligase I, and an activity remaining in the supernatant fraction, as DNA ligase II. DNA ligase I and II are ATP and Mg2+-dependent enzymes with pH optima of 7.8 and 8.0 and isoelectric points of 6.9 and 7.6, respectively. The purified I and II DNA ligase activities have molecular weights of 83,000 and 89,000, respectively. Both activities are inhibited by dATP and inorganic pyrophosphate. However, in the presence of optimum rATP levels, dATP stimulates DNA ligase II activity, whereas DNA ligase I is inhibited under the same conditions. Both activities are DNA specific and ligation follows reaction steps similar to those described for the Escherichia coli DNA ligase.

Abstract
The conformations and binding site environments of Mg2+TTP and Mg2+dATP bound to Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I and its large (Klenow) fragment have been investigated by proton NMR. The effect of the large fragment of Pol I on the NMR line widths of the protons of Mg2+TTP detected one binding site for this substrate with a dissociation constant of 300 +/- 100 microM and established simple competitive binding of deoxynucleoside triphosphates at this site in accord with previous equilibrium dialysis experiments with whole Pol I [Englund, P. T., Huberman, J.A., Jovin, T.M., & Kornberg, A. (1969) J. Biol. Chem. 244, 3038]. Primary negative nuclear Overhauser effects were used to calculate interproton distances on enzyme-bound Mg2+dATP and Mg2+TTP. These distances established that each substrate was bound with an anti-glycosidic torsional angle (chi) of 50 +/- 10 degrees for Mg2+dATP and 40 +/- 10 degrees for Mg2+TTP. The sugar pucker of both substrates was predominantly O1'-endo, with a C5'-C4'-C3'-O3' exocyclic torsional angle (delta) of 95 +/- 10 degrees for Mg2+dATP and 100 +/- 10 degrees for Mg2+TTP. The consistency of these conformations with those previously proposed, on the basis of distances from Mn2+ at the active site [Sloan, D. L., Loeb, L. A., Mildvan, A.S., & Feldman, R.J. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 8913], indicates a unique conformation for each bound nucleotide. The chi and delta values of the bound substrates are appropriate for nucleotide units of B DNA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
DNA polymerase I purified from both E. coli strain B, and from an overproducing E. coli stain lysogenized with a lambda pol A phage were analyzed for metal content. After gel filtration to remove loosely bound metals, DNA polymerase I from both strains contained less than or equal to 0.2 gm atoms Zn2+/mole enzyme and 0.09 to 0.7 Mg2+/mole enzyme. Substoichiometric amounts of Fe, Co, Ni (less than or equal to 0.2 gm atoms), and Mn (less than or equal to 0.1 gm atoms) were detected. Since the metal content does not correlate with enzymatic activity, we conclude that DNA polymerase I is not a metalloenzyme.

Abstract
The DNA sequence changes of 18 (9 different) mutations in the control region of the histidine operon of Salmonella typhimurium are presented. All of these mutations increase the level of expression of the operon, presumably by decreasing transcription termination at the attenuator. Five of the mutations were previously isolated hisO mutations, and the other four were isolated here as His+ pseudorevertants of His- stop codon mutations in the leader peptide gene. Only two mutations, O1242 and O3154, directly affect the terminator stem of the leader RNA. One mutation, O1202, creates a strong new stem that would compete with the terminator stem. Most of the other mutations damage other RNA stems. Their effect can best be explained by, and they thus provide supporting evidence for, the prevailing model of attenuator regulation involving alternative, competing RNA stems in the leader RNA. Two mutations that do not appear to significantly affect an RNA stem directly, including a deletion of three of the seven consecutive histidine codons, are best explained as effects of a translating ribosome upon the RNA stem structures, even though the histidine codons are not translated in the pseudorevertants.

Abstract
The polA1 mutation of Escherichia coli K12 and two further mutations, resA1 and resA2, characterized in E. coli B have been shown to produce enzymatically active nonsense (amber) peptides. These enzymes can be purified to virtual homogeneity by use of the lambda polA transducing phage system. The peptides are immunologically related and react weakly but specifically with antibody to whole DNA polymerase I. In their purified form the peptides are less heat-labile than the whole enzyme or the Klenow fragment produced by proteolysis. Physiological studies indicate that all three alleles are compatible with a number of different streptomycin resistance mutations (rpsL alleles) in a variety of genetic backgrounds. There is, however, clear evidence for slight amounts of "read-through" of these mutations under these conditions. DNA sequence studies have indicated the exact nucleotides that have been mutated to produce the amber alleles. The resA1 and resA2 alleles appear to be independent isolates of the same mutation both resulting in CAG (Gln) leads to TAG (amber) at amino acid residue 298. The polA1 mutation results in TGC (Trp) leads to TAG (amber) at amino acid residue 342. The significance of these findings is discussed with reference to the structure of the whole enzyme as shown by the DNA sequence data of Joyce et al. (1982) and protein chemistry of Brown et al. (1982).

lambdapolA phages carrying the polA gene in either orientation were isolated and characterised by genetic tests and by assay of the polA gene product after infection of E. coli or induction of lysogens. Lytic infection gave consistently better amplification of DNA polymerase I than that obtained by induction of a lysogen. Optimal amplification of DNA polymerase I was not achieved from the PL promoter of cro-phages, but some advantages accrued when the polA gene was oriented for transcription from the PL promoter of a cro+ phage. lambdapolA phages in which the polA allele was from E. coli strain C600 provided better amplification than phages with the polA allele from E. coli ED8659. Induction of a lambdapolA1 cI857 Qam Sam prophage gave levels of DNA polymerase I approaching 100 times that found in the non-lysogenic Pol+ host. Genetics studies with the lambdapolA phages confirmed the previously postulated orientation of the polA gene within the E. coli genome.
