Site-Specific Covalent Attachment Of Dna To Proteins Using A Photoactivatable Tus-Ter Complex, Dahdah B. Dahdah, Isabelle Morin, Morgane Moreau, Nicholas E. Dixon, Patrick M. Schaeffer

Professor Nick E Dixon

Investigations into the photocrosslinking kinetics of the protein Tus with various bromodeoxyuridine-substituted Ter DNA variants highlight the potential use of this complex as a photoactivatable connector between proteins of interest and specific DNA sequences.


Synthesis And Applications Of Covalent Protein-Dna Conjugates, Patrick M. Schaeffer, Nicholas E. Dixon Jul 2013

Synthesis And Applications Of Covalent Protein-Dna Conjugates, Patrick M. Schaeffer, Nicholas E. Dixon

Professor Nick E Dixon

Synthetic protein-DNA conjugates are valuable tools with applications in fields including nanobiotechnology, bioanalytical chemistry, and molecular diagnostics, and various synthetic methods for their production have been developed during the past three decades. The present article reviews current methodologies for the synthesis of covalent protein-DNA conjugates with particular focus on the regiospecificity and stoichiometry of these reactions.
