RecR forms a ring-like tetramer that encircles dsDNA by forming a complex with RecF
In the RecFOR pathway, the RecF and RecR proteins form a complex that binds to DNA and exerts multiple functions, including directing the loading of RecA onto single-stranded (ss) DNA regions near double-stranded (ds) DNA-ssDNA junctions and preventing it from forming a filament beyond the ssDNA region. However, neither the structure of the RecFR complex nor its DNA-binding mechanism was previo...
متن کاملRing-shaped architecture of RecR: implications for its role in homologous recombinational DNA repair.
RecR, together with RecF and RecO, facilitates RecA loading in the RecF pathway of homologous recombinational DNA repair in procaryotes. The human Rad52 protein is a functional counterpart of RecFOR. We present here the crystal structure of RecR from Deinococcus radiodurans (DR RecR). A monomer of DR RecR has a two-domain structure: the N-terminal domain with a helix-hairpin-helix (HhH) motif a...
متن کاملAn interaction between the Escherichia coli RecF and RecR proteins dependent on ATP and double-stranded DNA.
The DNA binding and ATPase activities of RecF protein are modulated by RecR protein. Stoichiometric amounts of RecF protein bind to double-stranded (ds) DNA (about 1 RecF monomer/4-6 base pairs) in the presence of adenosine 5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate (ATP gamma S), forming a homogeneous protein coating on the DNA. Little or no cooperativity is evident in the binding process. In the presence of A...
متن کاملTiopronin gold nanoparticle precursor forms aurophilic ring tetramer.
In the two step synthesis of thiolate-monolayer protected clusters (MPCs), the first step of the reaction is a mild reduction of gold(III) by thiols that generates gold(I) thiolate complexes as intermediates. Using tiopronin (Tio) as the thiol reductant, the characterization of the intermediate Au(4)Tio(4) complex was accomplished with various analytical and structural techniques. Nuclear magne...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of the RecF protein from Bacillus subtilis 168.
Genetic evidence suggests that the Bacillus subtilis recF gene product is involved in DNA repair and recombination. The RecF protein was overproduced and purified. NH2-terminal protein sequence analysis of RecF was consistent with the deduced amino acid sequence of the recF gene. The RecF protein (predicted molecular mass 42.3 kDa) bound single- and double-stranded DNA in a filter binding and i...
