Single stranded DNA-binding protein
Single stranded DNA-binding protein (SSBP). Molecular model showing the secondary and tertiary structures of a protein that binds to the single stranded DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in human mitochondria. Mitochondria are energy-producing organelles found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. SSBP binding to the DNA prevents the single strands combining to form double-stranded DNA (reannealing) and therefore allows the DNA replication machinery to carry out its function

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Single stranded DNA-binding protein (SSBP). The molecular model depicted here unveils the secondary and tertiary structures of this remarkable protein, which plays a crucial role in binding to single stranded DNA within human mitochondria. Mitochondria, often referred to as the powerhouses of eukaryotic cells, are responsible for generating energy. SSBP's binding to the DNA prevents reannealing or the combination of single strands into double-stranded DNA. This essential function allows the replication machinery to carry out its duties effectively. The artistry captured in this image is not only visually stunning but also holds immense scientific significance. The cut-out sheets showcasing various alpha helices and beta sheets create an awe-inspiring structural pattern that reveals the complexity of biological systems at a molecular level. With its focus on biochemistry and proteomics, this artwork represents a fusion between biology and chemistry. It serves as a reminder of how these two disciplines intertwine seamlessly in unraveling life's mysteries. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an exceptional piece that merges science with artistic expression. Through their lens, they have transformed complex scientific concepts into visual masterpieces that inspire curiosity and appreciation for our intricate world at both microscopic and macroscopic scales.
