S.ssb
Introduction
S.ssb is a single-stranded binding protein from Sulfolobus solfataricus (the same species as where Sso7d from). We wanted to test whether the single-stranded binding protein could enhance the enzymatic activity of Bst Pol using the change in the activity of the fusion protein composed of it and Bst Pol.
Usage and Biology
In past studies, double-stranded binding proteins, represented by sso7d, were often thought to enhance the activity of DNA polymerase A or DNA polymerase B. However, as a single-stranded binding protein that can also bind DNA, there is no study to prove whether it can increase the activity of DNA polymerase. Therefore, we chose S. ssb, a single-stranded binding protein from the same species as Sso7d, Sulfolobus solfataricus, to verify whether the single-stranded binding protein could enhance the enzymatic activity of Bst Pol.
Experimental Results
Since the length of the S.ssb fragment is less than 500bp, we chose to synthesize the sequence ourselves by Oligo assembly using Phanta polymerase. We obtained the sequence information from EBI[1] and designed synthetic primers for synthesis
The length of S.ssb DNA was 441 bp, which is approximately 460 bp after adding homology arms to both ends for PCR cloning. We isolated the DNA of interest by gel extraction for subsequent reactions.
