Plant N-Utilization Substance G (NusG) N-terminal (NGN) domain The N-Utilization Substance G (NusG) protein and its eukaryotic homolog, Spt5, are involved in transcription elongation and termination. NusG contains a NGN domain at its N-terminus and Kyrpides Ouzounis and Woese (KOW) repeats at its C-terminus in bacteria and archaea. The eukaryotic ortholog, Spt5, is a large protein comprising an acidic N-terminus, an NGN domain, and multiple KOW motifs at its C-terminus. Spt5 forms an Spt4-Spt5 complex that is an essential RNA polymerase II elongation factor. The bacterial infected plants contain bacterial DNA, such as NGN sequences, that can be used to clone the DNA of uncultured organisms. |
