Telomere end binding proteins from diverse organisms use various forms of an ancient protein structure to recognize and bind with single-strand DNA found at the ends of telomeres. To further understand the biochemistry and evolution of these proteins, we have characterized the DNA binding properties of the telomere end binding protein from Euplotes crassus (EcTEBP). EcTEBP and its predicted amino-terminal DNA-binding domain, EcTEBP-N, were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. Each protein ...[more]
