The RAD51 family member, RAD51L3, is a DNA-stimulated ATPase that forms a complex with XRCC2.
The Rad51 protein in eukaryotic cells is a structural and functional homolog of Escherichia coli RecA with a role in DNA repair and genetic recombination. Several proteins showing sequence similarity to Rad51 have previously been identified in both yeast and human cells. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, two of these proteins, Rad55p and Rad57p, form a heterodimer that can stimulate Rad51-mediated D...
متن کاملThe XRCC2 DNA repair gene from human and mouse encodes a novel member of the recA/RAD51 family
We recently identified a positional candidate for the XRCC2 DNA repair gene at human chromosome 7q36.1. We have now cloned the cDNA for this gene from both human and mouse and show that it is a highly conserved novel member of the recA / RAD51 recombination repair gene family. The cDNA is able to complement significantly the phenotype of a unique cell line, irs1 , which shows extreme sensitivit...
متن کاملThe papillomavirus E1 protein forms a DNA-dependent hexameric complex with ATPase and DNA helicase activities.
The E1 protein from bovine papillomavirus has site-specific DNA binding activity, DNA helicase activity, and DNA-dependent ATPase activity consistent with the properties of an initiator protein. Here we have identified and characterized a novel oligomeric form of E1 that is associated with the ATPase and DNA helicase activities and whose formation is strongly stimulated by single-stranded DNA. ...
متن کاملA member of the Whirly family is a multifunctional RNA- and DNA-binding protein that is essential for chloroplast biogenesis
'Whirly' proteins comprise a plant-specific protein family whose members have been described as DNA-binding proteins that influence nuclear transcription and telomere maintenance, and that associate with nucleoids in chloroplasts and mitochondria. We identified the maize WHY1 ortholog among proteins that coimmunoprecipitate with CRS1, which promotes the splicing of the chloroplast atpF group II...
متن کاملThe ATPase of the phi29 DNA packaging motor is a member of the hexameric AAA+ superfamily
The AAA+ superfamily of proteins is a class of motor ATPases performing a wide range of functions that typically exist as hexamers. The ATPase of phi29 DNA packaging motor has long been a subject of debate in terms of stoichiometry and mechanism of action. Here, we confirmed the stoichiometry of phi29 motor ATPase to be a hexamer and provide data suggesting that the phi29 motor ATPase is a memb...
