Abstract
This invention relates to newly identified polynucleotides and polypeptides, and their production and uses, as well as their variants, agonists and antagonists, and their uses. In particular, the invention relates to polynucleotides and polypeptides of a ( ) DnaI related protein, as well as its variants, hereinafter referred to as “ DnaI”, “ DnaI polypeptide(s)”, and “ dnaI polynucleotides” as the case may be. Also, the invention relates to a specific interaction between the DnaI related protein and a growth-inhibitory protein encoded by the bacteriophage 77 genome. The phage ORF product interacts with the DnaI polypeptide, and the invention contemplates use of this interaction target site for the basis of a drug screening assay. In addition, the invention relates to polynucleotides and polypeptides of a protein complex containing DnaI and DnaC related proteins, as well as their variants.
