Abstract
The hexapeptide fragment 53-58 of the lac repressor protein (Ala-Gln-Gln-Leu-Ala-Gly) was synthesized. Circular dichroic spectrum of the peptide has negative bands at 195 and 225 nm (weak). The hexapeptide, which has no basic residues, stabilized the AT rich Clostridium perfringens DNA, but had no effect, significantly, on the melting profile of either poly dA - poly dT or poly d(A-T)·poly d(A-T). The melting temperature of Micrococcus lysodeikticus DNA with a high GC content, was unaffected by the peptide.
