Homologous recombination
|
ds break repair: ds break in 1 of 2 homologs is converted to a ds gap by action of endonuclease (produce 3' overhang b/c strands w/ 3' ends are degraded less than those with 5' ends). Exposed 3' end pairs with complement in intact homolog. Other strand of duplex is displaced. the invading 3' end is extended by DNA pol and branch migration, generating a DNA molec w/ 2 crossovers (Halliday intermed). Can have chromosome arms swapped or not swapped; does not lose DNA bps
|

|
|
RecBCD
|
(E.coli) aka Exonuclease V, initiates recombinational repair from dsDNA breaks, it's a helicase and a nuclease (makes ss nicks in DNA). Helicase and nucleaes activities of RecBCD degrade DNA to make 3' overhang. Chi (octameric seq, triggers helicase to start degrading only 1 strand to leave 3' overhang) pauses RecBCD, helicase alters mechanism, continues w/o nuclease. ssDNA is substrate for RecA. HUMAN = MRN
|
|
Chi

|
|
RecA
|
(E.coli) susbtrate is ssDNA (formed from RecBCD nuclease/helicase activity).

(can hold ssDNA or dsDNA --> can make synapse). ATP-dependent. HUMANS = RAD51
|
|
MRN complex
|
(mammals). Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 complex. Mammalian version of E.coli's RecBCD -- exonuclease activity to create 3' ssDNA ends. Nbs1 recognizes DSB sites. Rad51 coats 3' ssDNA region and finds homologous region on sister chromatid
|
|
Rad51
|
Mammalian version of E.coli's RecA. Coats the ss 3' ends. Dependent on BRCA1&2. ATP-dependent. Promotes strand exchange, pairing 3' end of ss with sister chromatid, DNA pol extends until 3' end can have a "sticky end" with the other 3' end of the ds break, joining it together. DNA pol and ligase fill/ligate the gap.

histones are hypo-acetylated; Sir2 is a histone deacetylase (removes -OAc), Sir complex (Sir2,3,4) bind cooperatively to de-acetylated chromatin, tightly packing 30nm filament, combined actions of packaging proteins and deacetylase promote heterochromatin spreading and gene silencing; replicated later in S phase
|
|
