The intrinsically disordered C-terminal domain of bacteriophage T4 gp32 amplifies pre-existing conformational heterogeneity at DNA replication junctions

Selective molecular recognition of dynamic nucleic acid structures is fundamental to DNA replication, yet the physical mechanisms by which intrinsically disordered protein domains achieve this selectivity remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate how the intrinsically disordered C-terminal domain (CTD) of the bacteriophage T4 single-stranded DNA-binding protein gp32 contributes to the…
