  • Title: Synthesis of bacteriophage M13-specific proteins in a DNA-dependent cell-free system. II. In vitro synthesis of biologically active gene 5 protein.
    Author: Konings RN, Jansen J, Cuypers T, Schoenmakers JG.
    Journal: J Virol; 1973 Dec; 12(6):1466-72. PubMed ID: 4586780.
    Abstract:
    It is shown that gene 5 protein of bacteriophage M13 is one of the major proteins synthesized in vitro under the direction of M13 replicative-form DNA. By means of DNA-cellulose chromatography, this protein has been purified to homogeneity and its biological characteristics have been compared with those of its native counterpart. Like native gene 5 protein, the purified, in vitro-synthesized protein binds tightly and selectively to single-stranded, but not to double-stranded, DNAs. These results suggest that truly functional gene 5 protein is made in the cell-free system.
