A time-dependent transferred nuclear Overhauser enhancement study of the conformation of the single-stranded DNA 11mer 5'd(A-A-G-T-G-T-G-A-T-A-T) bound to the single-stranded DNA binding protein of Escherichia coli (SSB) is presented. It is shown that the conformation of the bound 11mer is that of a right-handed B-type helix similar to that of the free 11mer. The observation of internucleotide transferred nuclear Overhauser enhancements for every base step excludes the possibility of intercalation by aromatic protein residues. In addition, it is shown that the effective correlation time of the bases (80 ns) corresponds to that of a complex of molecular weight approximately 170,000, containing two SSB tetramers. The sugars, on the other hand, exhibit a shorter effective correlation time (40 ns), indicating the presence of internal motion. This suggests that the bases are anchored to the protein surface, possibly by hydrophobic interactions, whereas the sugar-phosphate groups are directed outwards towards the solvent.
