Thermodynamic characterization of specific interactions between the human Lon protease and G-quartet DNA

Lon is an ATP-powered protease that binds DNA. However, the function of DNA binding by Lon remains elusive. Studies suggest that human Lon (hLon) binds preferentially to a G-rich single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) sequence overlapping the light strand promoter of mitochondrial DNA. This sequence is contain...
