The wild-type Escherichia coli RecA protein is a recombinase platform with unrealized recombination potential. We have explored the factors affecting recombination during conjugation with a quantitative assay. Regulatory proteins that affect RecA fun

Homologous recombination (HR) plays a critical role in facilitating replication fork progression when the polymerase complex encounters a blocking DNA lesion, and it also serves as the primary mechanism for error-free repair of DNA double strand brea

Exposure of cells to DNA-damaging agents results in a rapid increase in the formation of subnuclear complexes containing Rad51. To date, it has not been determined to what extent DNA damage-induced cytoplasmic to nuclear transport of Rad51 may contri

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) caused by cellular exposure to genotoxic agents or produced by inherent metabolic processes initiate a rapid and highly coordinated series of molecular events resulting in DNA damage signaling and repair. Phosphorylati

All RecA-like recombinase enzymes catalyze DNA strand exchange as elongated filaments on DNA. Despite numerous biochemical and structural studies of RecA and the related Rad51 and RadA proteins, the unit oligomer(s) responsible for nucleoprotein fila

Human Rad52 (HsRad52) is a DNA-binding protein (418 residues) that promotes the catalysis of DNA double strand break repair by the Rad51 recombinase. HsRad52 self-associates to form ring-shaped oligomers as well as higher order complexes of these rin

Rad51-mediated homologous recombination (HR) is essential for maintenance of genome integrity. The Xrcc3 protein functions in HR DNA repair, and studies suggest it has multiple roles at different stages in this pathway. Defects in vertebrate XRCC3 re

We have introduced targeted mutations in two areas that make up part of the RecA subunit interface. In the RecA crystal structure, cross-subunit interactions are observed between the Lys6 and Asp139 side-chains, and between the Arg28 and Asn113 side-

The human Rad51 protein (hRad51), like its bacterial homologue RecA, catalyzes genetic recombination between homologous single and double-stranded DNA substrates. Using IAsys biosensor technology, we have examined the critical first step in this proc

Mutational studies of regions that make up the oligomeric interface within the RecA protein filament structure have shown that F217 is an important determinant of RecA function and oligomer stability. All substitutions, other than Tyr and Cys, comple
