Bacillus subtilis RecA with DprA–SsbA antagonizes RecX function during natural transformation
Bacillus subtilis DprA and RecX proteins, which interact with RecA, are crucial for efficient chromosomal and plasmid transformation. We showed that RecA, in the rATP·Mg2+ bound form (RecA·ATP), could not compete with RecX, SsbA or SsbB for assembly onto single-stranded (ss)DNA, but RecA·dATP partially displaced these proteins from ssDNA. RecX promoted reversible depolymerization of preformed R...
متن کاملInduction of the Bacillus subtilis SOS-like response by Escherichia coli RecA protein.
A plasmid that expresses the Escherichia coli RecA protein partially restored DNA repair and recombination capability and induction of the SOS-like (SOB) response in a recE4 mutant of Bacillus subtilis. In the presence of DNA-damaging agents, the E. coli RecA protein induced din operon expression, Weigle-reactivation activity, and synthesis of a B. subtilis recombination protein (Recbs) analogo...
متن کاملBacillus subtilis RecU Holliday-junction resolvase modulates RecA activities
The Bacillus subtilis RecU protein is able to catalyze in vitro DNA strand annealing and Holliday-junction resolution. The interaction between the RecA and RecU proteins, in the presence or absence of a single-stranded binding (SSB) protein, was studied. Substoichiometric amounts of RecU enhanced RecA loading onto single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and stimulated RecA-catalyzed D-loop formation. Howev...
متن کاملIntroduction of host-controlled modification and restriction systems of Bacillus subtilis IAM1247 into Bacillus subtilis 168.
Bacillus subtilis IAM1247 had two modification and restriction systems (Bsu1247I and Bsu1247II), the former producing an isoschizomer of PstI endonuclease. A transformant clone was isolated which had Bsu 168, BsuR, and Bsu1247I systems coexisting within a genome.
