RecBCD

-enters at DSB


-involved in initiation of DNA recombination and processing


-has helicase, exonuclease and endonuclease activity

RecA

-involved in strand invasion, homologous pairing and formation of Holliday-type structure


-forms Nucleoprotein Filaments


-promotes strand-exchange reaction


-performs homology searching


-Euk homologs are Rad51 and Dmc1 which both function in meiotic recombination

RuvAB

involved in branch migration in prokaryotes

RuvC Resolvase

-catalyzes the resolution of Holliday Junctions


-dimer that clips 2 DNA strands to yield either patch or splice recombinant products


-clipping occurs at 5'-(A/T)TT(G/C)-3'

Eukaryotic Recombination Proteins

RAD52

-and BRCA2 are both recombination mediators


-it forms a complex with RAD51, and delivers RAD51 to RPA-coated ssDNA, polymerization of more RAD51 molecules results in distancing of RPA from DNA

BRCA2

Human Breast Cancer Susceptibility Gene 2


-interacts with RAD51 and controls genome stability


-mutations are thought ti be responsible for half of familial breast cancers, and also ovarian cancer and the DNA damage syndrome Fanconi Anemia


-composed of BRC repeats, which each bind a Rad51 monomer


-theorized that BRCA2 functions in targeting Rad51 specifically to the ssDNA region of a resected DSB

Stabilization of RAD51 filaments by the C-terminal region of BRCA2

Proteins involved in ssBreaks

Spo11 in Eukaryotes


processing proteins:

Rad51c-XRCC3 complex, WRN, BLM (Euk)

Rat1

involved in the Torpedo Model of transcription termination in Eukaryotes where its loaded by RNA Pol and released in Poly-A sites to cleave the RNA product and terminate transcription

GreB

Elongation factor that stimulates the 3' --> 5' exonuclease activity of RNA Pol in the Hydrolytic Editing form of proofreading
