Homologous recombination (HR), an evolutionary conserved pathway, plays a paramount role(s) in genome plasticity. The pivotal HR step is the strand invasion/exchange of double-stranded DNA by a homologous single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) covered by RAD51 ...

Expression of RAD51, a crucial player in homologous recombination (HR) and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, is dysregulated in human tumors, and can contribute to genomic instability and tumor progression.

As the primary catalyst of homologous recombination (HR) in vertebrates, RAD51 has been extensively studied in the context of repair of double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs). With recent advances in the understanding of RAD51 function extending beyond DSBs, the importance of RAD51 throughout DNA metabolism has become increasingly clear.

Nucleotide proofreading functions by nematode RAD51 paralogs facilitate optimal RAD51 filament function [PDF]
AbstractThe RAD51 recombinase assembles as helical nucleoprotein filaments on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and mediates invasion and strand exchange with homologous duplex DNA (dsDNA) during homologous recombination (HR), as well as protection and restart of stalled replication forks.

Regulation of Rad51 promoter [PDF]
The DNA double-strand break repair and homologous recombination protein Rad51 is overexpressed in the majority of human cancers. This correlates with therapy resistance and decreased patient survival. We previously showed that constructs containing Rad51 promoter fused to a reporter gene are, on average, 850-fold more active in cancer cells than in ...

Contributions of the RAD51 N-terminal domain to BRCA2-RAD51 interaction [PDF]
RAD51 DNA strand exchange protein catalyzes the central step in homologous recombination, a cellular process fundamentally important for accurate repair of damaged chromosomes, preservation of the genetic integrity, restart of collapsed replication forks and telomere maintenance.

Swi5–Sfr1 stimulates Rad51 recombinase filament assembly by modulating Rad51 dissociation [PDF]
Significance In DNA homologous recombination, recombinase-coated single-stranded DNA filament formation is the first committed step and is subject to tight regulation. Stabilization of nucleoprotein filament by accessory proteins can be achieved by enhancing filament formation, reducing filament disassembly, or both. However, the mechanism of

Srs2 Disassembles Rad51 Filaments by a Protein-Protein Interaction Triggering ATP Turnover and Dissociation of Rad51 from DNA [PDF]
Rad51 is a DNA recombinase functioning in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks and the generation of genetic diversity by homologous recombination (HR).

Rad51 Paralogs Remodel Pre-synaptic Rad51 Filaments to Stimulate Homologous Recombination [PDF]
Repair of DNA double strand breaks by homologous recombination (HR) is initiated by Rad51 filament nucleation on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), which catalyzes strand exchange with homologous duplex DNA. BRCA2 and the Rad51 paralogs are tumor suppressors and critical mediators of Rad51.

Interactome analysis and docking site prediction of DNA X-ray repair cross-complementing protein (XRCC) in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
There are seven homologs in eukaryotic RAD51 gene family which are conserved among animals and plants, and those are RAD51, DMC1, RAD51c, XRCC3, RAD51b, RAD51d and XRCC2.
