The Bacillus subtilis primosomal protein DnaD untwists supercoiled DNA (2006)
Journal Article
Zhang, W., Allen, S., Roberts, C. J., & Soultanas, P. (2006). The Bacillus subtilis primosomal protein DnaD untwists supercoiled DNA. Journal of Bacteriology, 188(15), https://doi.org/10.1128/JB.00339-06

The essential Bacillus subtilis DnaD and DnaB proteins have been implicated in the initiation of DNA replication. Recently, DNA remodeling activities associated with both proteins were discovered that could provide a link between global or local nucl...

Helicase binding to DnaI exposes a cryptic DNA-binding site during helicase loading in Bacillus subtilis (2006)
Journal Article
Ioannou, C., Schaeffer, P. M., Dixon, N. E., & Soultanas, P. (2006). Helicase binding to DnaI exposes a cryptic DNA-binding site during helicase loading in Bacillus subtilis. Nucleic Acids Research, 34(18), https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkl690

The Bacillus subtilis DnaI, DnaB and DnaD proteins load the replicative ring helicase DnaC onto DNA during priming of DNA replication. Here we show that DnaI consists of a C-terminal domain (Cd) with ATPase and DNA-binding activities and an N-termina...
