The B-subunit of DNA polymerase is encoded by dnaN . The recF gene product is involved in recombination, DNA repair, and induction of the SOS response, and may also have a role in replication [ 17 ] . Bacterial DNA gyrase, a tetramer consisting of A and B subunits, catalyzes the ATP-dependent unwinding of covalently closed circular DNA [ 18 ] . The remaining predicted ORFs in this region have high similarity to hypothetical proteins from M. tuberculosis (Table 1).
Venkatachalam and colleagues suggested the strong concentration dependence of p53 function could be explained by the fact that p53 functions as a tetramer.
Although staining with peptide–MHC tetramers provides a direct estimate for the number of TAA-specific T cells present in vivo, and intensity of tetramer staining has been employed as a parameter for isolation of high-RE, tumor-lytic T cells [27], staining intensity does not correlate well with RE or tumor-lytic potential [28,29], and cannot be considered a reliable indicator for the functional status of TAA-specific T cells.
[ 4 ] Such epitopes also find application in tetramer staining as powerful immuno-markers for estimating antigen specific T cells during pathogenesis.
Analysis of the crystal structure of GlpF suggests that potential ion binding sites may be located in the central pore, at the four-fold axis of symmetry in the tetrameric association of subunits that form the channel [ 15 ] . Interestingly, this arrangement of a tetramer of subunits to form a central ion pore is a hallmark of the family of voltage-gated ion channels [ 23 ] , which rely on a tetrameric organization to create a central pore for ions that is lined by sequences contributed from all four subunits.
