Shibata T, Ikawa S, Iwasaki W, Sasanuma H, Masai H, Hirota K
Nucleic Acids Res
. 2024 Jan;
52(5):2565-2577.
PMID: 38214227
RecA protein and RecA/Rad51 orthologues are required for homologous recombination and DNA repair in all living creatures. RecA/Rad51 catalyzes formation of the D-loop, an obligatory recombination intermediate, through an ATP-dependent...

Konomura N, Arai N, Shinohara T, Kobayashi J, Iwasaki W, Ikawa S, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res
. 2016 Oct;
45(1):337-352.
PMID: 27794044
RecA-family recombinase-catalyzed ATP-dependent homologous joint formation is critical for homologous recombination, in which RecA or Rad51 binds first to single-stranded (ss)DNA and then interacts with double-stranded (ds)DNA. However, when RecA...

Shinohara T, Ikawa S, Iwasaki W, Hiraki T, Hikima T, Mikawa T, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res
. 2015 Jan;
43(2):973-86.
PMID: 25561575
In all organisms, RecA-family recombinases catalyze homologous joint formation in homologous genetic recombination, which is essential for genome stability and diversification. In homologous joint formation, ATP-bound RecA/Rad51-recombinases first bind single-stranded...

. 2014 Jul;
121:325-30.
PMID: 24974776
Single-stranded DNA-binding (SSB) proteins were treated with hybrids of DNA and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) to examine the biological function of the DNA molecules adsorbed on the SWNT surface. When...

PLoS One
. 2013 Oct;
8(10):e75451.
PMID: 24124491
In higher eukaryotes, RAD51 functions as an essential protein in homologous recombination and recombinational repair of DNA double strand breaks. During these processes, RAD51 catalyzes homologous pairing between single-stranded DNA...

Takaku M, Takahashi D, Machida S, Ueno H, Hosoya N, Ikawa S, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res
. 2010 Jul;
38(21):7579-86.
PMID: 20639531
The human Ena/Vasp-like (EVL) protein is considered to be a bifunctional protein, involved in both actin remodeling and homologous recombination. In the present study, we found that human EVL forms...

FEBS J
. 2008 Dec;
276(2):457-65.
PMID: 19076215
The DMC1 protein, a meiosis-specific DNA recombinase, promotes homologous pairing and strand exchange. The I37N single nucleotide polymorphism of the human DMC1 protein was reported as a result of human...

J Biol Chem
. 2008 Jul;
283(35):24264-73.
PMID: 18593704
Rad52 plays essential roles in homology-dependent double-strand break repair. Various studies have established the functions of Rad52 in Rad51-dependent and Rad51-independent repair processes. However, the precise molecular mechanisms of Rad52...

PMID: 18583359
The DMC1 protein, a meiosis-specific DNA recombinase, catalyzes strand exchange between homologous chromosomes. In rice, two Dmc1 genes, Dmc1A and Dmc1B, have been reported. Although the Oryza sativa DMC1A protein...

PMID: 18566005
The M200V polymorphism of the human DMC1 protein, which is an essential, meiosis-specific DNA recombinase, was found in an infertile patient, raising the question of whether this homozygous human DMC1-M200V...
