Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- With an effective telescope area of order 104 m2 for TeV neutrinos, a threshold near ∼50 GeV and a pointing accuracy of 2.5 degrees per muon track, the AMANDA detector represents the first of a new generation of high energy neutrino telescopes, reaching a scale envisaged over 25 years ago. We describe early results on the calibration of natural deep ice as a particle detector as well as on AMANDA's performance as a neutrino telescope.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We review the status of the AMANDA neutrino telescope. We present resultsobtained from the four-string prototype array AMANDA-B4 and describe themethods of track reconstruction and neutrino event separation. We give also firstresults of the analysis of the 10-string detector AMANDA-B10, in particular onatmospheric neutrinos and the search for magnetic monopoles. We sketch thefuture schedule on the way to a cube kilometer telescope at the South Pole,ICECUBE.

- The first stage of the AMANDA High Energy Neutrino Detector at the South Pole, the 302 PMT array AMANDA-B with an expected effective area for TeV neutrinos of ∼ 104 m2, has been taking data since 1997. Progress with calibration, investigation of ice properties, as well as muon and neutrino data analysis are described. The next stage 20-string detector AMANDA-II with ∼800 PMTs will be completed in spring 2000.

Difference between active and inactive nucleotide cofactors in the effect of DNA binding and the helical structure of RecA filament
- 1999
-
In: European Journal of Biochemistry. - : Wiley. - 0014-2956 .- 1432-1033. ; 262:1, s. 88-94
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The RecA protein requires ATP or dATP for its coprotease and strand exchange activities. Other natural nucleotides, such as ADP, CTP, GTP, UTP and TTP, have little or no activation effect on RecA for these activities. We have investigated the activation mechanism, and the selectivity for ATP, by studying the effect of various nucleotides on the DNA binding and the helical structure of the RecA filament. The interaction with DNA was investigated via fluorescence measurements with a fluorescent DNA analog and fluorescein-labeled oligonucleotides, assisted by linear dichroism. Filament structure was investigated via small-angle neutron scattering. There is no simple correlation between filament elongation, DNA binding affinity of RecA, and DNA structure in the RecA complex. There may be multiple conformations of RecA, Both coprotease and strand exchange activities require formation of a rigid and well organized complex. The triphosphate nucleotides which do not activate RecA, destabilize the RecA-DNA complex, indicating that the chemical nature of the nucleotide nucleobase is very important for the stability of RecA-DNA complex. Higher stability of the RecA-DNA complex in the presence of adenosine 5'-O-3-thiotriphosphate or guanosine 5'-O-3-thiotriphosphate than ATP or GTP indicates that contact between the protein and the chemical group at the gamma position of the nucleotide also affects the stability of the RecA-DNA complex. This contact appears also important for the rigid organization of DNA because ADP strongly decreases the rigidity of the complex.

Nucleotide Cofactor-Dependent Structural Change of Xenopus laevis Rad51 Protein Filament Detected by Small-Angle Neutron Scattering Measurements in Solution

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Rad51 protein, a eukaryotic homologue of RecA protein, forms a filamentous complex with DNA and catalyzes homologous recombination. We have analyzed the structure of Xenopus Rad51 protein (XRad51.1) in solution by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The measurements showed that XRad51.1 forms a helical filament independently of DNA. The sizes of the cross-sectional and helical pitch of the filament could be determined, respectively, from a Guinier plot and the position of the subsidiary maximum of SANS data. We observed that the helical structure is modified by nucleotide binding as in the case of RecA. Upon ATP binding under high-salt conditions (600 mM NaCl), the helical pitch of XRad51.1 filament was increased from 8 to 10 nm and the cross-sectional diameter decreased from 7 to 6 nm. The pitch sizes of XRad51.1 are similar to, though slightly larger than, those of RecA filament under corresponding conditions. A similar helical pitch size was observed by electron microscopy for budding yeast Rad51 [Ogawa, T., et al. (1993) Science 259, 1896-1899]. In contrast to the RecA filament, the structure of XRad51.1 filament with ADP is not significantly different from that with ATP. Thus, the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP does not modify the helical filament of XRad51.1. Together with our recent observation that ADP does not weaken the XRad51.1/DNA interaction, the effect of ATP hydrolysis on XRad51.1 nucleofilament should be very different from that on RecA.
