How can you use “dnaa” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Fuzznuc (EMBOSS; http://www.hgmp.mrc.ac.uk/Software/EMBOSS/index.html) was used to identify potential DnaA boxes in the M. paratuberculosis oriC region.
The interaction of DnaA with DnaA boxes promotes the local unwinding of a nearby AT-rich region, providing an entry site for the DnaB/DnaC helicase complex.
The dnaA gene itself is divided into four domains that differ in the extent of sequence homology [ 34 ] . Domain IV is responsible for DnaA box recognition and domain III is a highly conserved region containing the ATP-binding site [ 13 35 ] . Domain I participates in cooperative DnaA protein-DNA interactions [ 36 ] .
The sequence immediately flanking the dnaA gene is considered the origin of chromosomal replication, or oriC region [ 9 10 ] . This region contains several genes that encode proteins required for basic cellular functions, including the protein subunit of RNase P (RnpA), ribosomal protein L34 (RpmH), the replication initiator protein (DnaA), the beta subunit of DNA polymerase III (DnaN), the recombination repair protein RecF, and the DNA gyrase proteins GyrA and GyrB.
The dnaA gene is divided into four functional domains based on analysis of several dnaA mutants [ 24 ] . These domains consist of (1) an area near the N-terminus thought be involved in ability of the DnaA protein to aggregate, (2) ATP binding, (3) a domain that maps to a region near the C-terminus and is involved in DNA binding, (4) and a final domain of unknown function, but may bind DnaB.
