Tested Applications
ELISA;Not yet tested in other applications.
Background / Function
Single-stranded DNA-binding protein that eliminates secondary structure in long ssDNA formed on the lagging strand of the replication fork. Stimulates DNA polymerase activity and increases the efficiency of RNA primer synthesis by interacting with the DNA polymerase and the helicase/primase protein gp4. Disrupts loops, hairpins and other secondary structures present on ssDNA to reduce and eliminate pausing of viral DNA polymerase at specific sites during elongation.
