Isolation, characterisation and expression patterns of a RAD51 ortholog from Pleurotus ostreatus [PDF]
AB: Using degenerated primers for conserved regions of RecA homologs we have isolated a gene from Pleurotus ostreatus that shows characteristic features of RAD51 homologs. The encoded amino acid sequence of P.

RAD51 is essential for spermatogenesis and male fertility in mice
The recombinase RAD51 catalyzes the DNA strand exchange reaction in homologous recombination (HR) during both mitosis and meiosis. However, the physiological role of RAD51 during spermatogenesis remains unclear since RAD51 null mutation is embryonic ...

Interrogation of the protein-protein interactions between human BRCA2 BRC repeats and RAD51 reveals atomistic determinants of affinity [PDF]
The breast cancer suppressor BRCA2 controls the recombinase RAD51 in the reactions that mediate homologous DNA recombination, an essential cellular process required for the error-free repair of DNA double-stranded breaks.

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 ...

Distinct roles for two RAD51-related genes in Trypanosoma brucei antigenic variation [PDF]
In Trypanosoma brucei, DNA recombination is crucial in antigenic variation, a strategy for evading the mammalian host immune system found in a wide variety of pathogens.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is the strongest known risk factor for the development of gastric cancer. DNA damage response (DDR) and autophagy play key roles in tumorigenic transformation. However, it remains unclear how H.

Structure of the hDmc1-ssDNA filament reveals the principles of its architecture [PDF]
In eukaryotes, meiotic recombination is a major source of genetic diversity, but its defects in humans lead to abnormalities such as Down's, Klinefelter's and other syndromes.

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

Structural basis for stabilisation of the RAD51 nucleoprotein filament by BRCA2
The BRCA2 tumour suppressor protein preserves genomic integrity via interactions with the DNA-strand exchange RAD51 protein in homology-directed repair.
