Structural basis for stabilisation of the RAD51 nucleoprotein filament by BRCA2

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The BRCA2 tumour suppressor protein preserves genomic integrity via interactions with the DNA-strand exchange RAD51 protein in homology-directed repair.

Rad51 paralogues Rad55–Rad57 balance the antirecombinase Srs2 in Rad51 filament formation [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2011
Homologous recombination is a high-fidelity DNA repair pathway. Besides a critical role in accurate chromosome segregation during meiosis, recombination functions in DNA repair and in the recovery of stalled or broken replication forks to ensure genomic stability.

Mapping the breakome reveals tight regulation on oncogenic super-enhancers

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) could be deleterious and lead to age-related diseases, such as cancer. Recent evidence, however, associates DSBs with vital cellular processes. As discussed here, genome-wide mapping of DSBs revealed an unforeseen coupling

A RAD51–ADP double filament structure unveils the mechanism of filament dynamics in homologous recombination

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
ATP-dependent RAD51 recombinases play an essential role in eukaryotic homologous recombination by catalyzing a four-step process: 1) formation of a RAD51 single-filament assembly on ssDNA in the presence of ATP, 2) complementary DNA strand-exchange, 3 ...

Radiation-induced Assembly of Rad51 and Rad52 Recombination Complex Requires ATM and c-Abl [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Cells from individuals with the recessive cancer-prone disorder ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) are hypersensitive to ionizing radiation (I-R). ATM (mutated in A-T) is a protein kinase whose activity is stimulated by I-R. c-Abl, a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase,

BRCA1-BARD1: the importance of being in shape

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2019
The breast cancer type-1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) contributes to genome integrity through homologous recombinational DNA repair and by protecting stalled replication forks from nucleolytic degradation.

Bre1/RNF20 promotes Rad51-mediated strand exchange and antagonizes the Srs2/FBH1 helicases

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Central to homologous recombination (HR) is the assembly of Rad51 recombinase on single-strand DNA (ssDNA), forming the Rad51-ssDNA filament. How the Rad51 filament is efficiently established and sustained remains partially understood. Here, we find that

Reconstitution of recombination-associated DNA synthesis with human proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The repair of DNA breaks by homologous recombination is a high-fidelity process, necessary for the maintenance of genome integrity. Thus, DNA synthesis associated with recombinational repair must be largely error-free.

RAD51 is a poor prognostic marker and a potential therapeutic target for oral squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2023
Objectives RAD51 overexpression has been reported to serve as a marker of poor prognosis in several cancer types. This study aimed to survey the role of RAD51 in oral squamous cell carcinoma and whether RAD51 could be a potential therapeutic target ...
