RNA-DNA hybridization promoted by E.coli RecA portein [PDF]
RecA protein of E. coli plays a central regulatory role that is induced by damage to DNA and results in the inactivation of LexA repressor. In vitro, RecA protein binds preferentially to single-stranded DNA to form a nucleoprotein filament that can ...

The molecular characterisation of the recA locus in the opportunistic pathogen Bacteroides fragilis [PDF]
Bacteroides fragilis is a human gut commensal and an opportunistic pathogen causing anaerobic abscesses and bacteraemias which are treated with the drug, metronidazole, a DNA damaging agent.

F. tularensis strain 15/23-1 recA is different from the vaccine strain F. tularensis line 15 NIIEG by lacking one from the two copies of iglC gene and recA gene has reduced its reactogenicity for experimental animals (BALB/c mice and guinea pigs ...

Dynamics and Regulation of RecA Polymerization and De-Polymerization on Double-Stranded DNA. [PDF]
The RecA filament formed on double-stranded (ds) DNA is proposed to be a functional state analogous to that generated during the process of DNA strand exchange.

Single Molecule Study of the Polymerization of RecA on dsDNA: The Dynamics of Individual Domains
In the Escherichia coli, RecA plays a central role in the recombination and repair of the DNA. For homologous recombination, RecA binds to ssDNA forming a nucleoprotein filament.

RecA Regulation by RecU and DprA During Bacillus subtilis Natural Plasmid Transformation
Natural plasmid transformation plays an important role in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes in bacteria. During this process, Bacillus subtilis RecA physically interacts with RecU, RecX, and DprA.

Spatial and temporal organization of RecA in the Escherichia coli DNA-damage response
The RecA protein orchestrates the cellular response to DNA damage via its multiple roles in the bacterial SOS response. Lack of tools that provide unambiguous access to the various RecA states within the cell have prevented understanding of the spatial ...

Purification and characterization of the RecA protein from Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The strict human pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the only causative agent of the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea. The recA gene from N. gonorrhoeae is essential for DNA repair, natural DNA transformation, and pilin antigenic variation, all ...
