Akamatsu Y, Kobayashi T
Mol Cell Biol . 2015 Mar; 35(10):1871-81. PMID: 25776556
In S phase, the replication and transcription of genomic DNA need to accommodate each other, otherwise their machineries collide, with chromosomal instability as a possible consequence. Here, we characterized the...

Seikagaku . 2014 Jan; 85(10):839-44. PMID: 24392582

Tsai S, Su G, Lin S, Chung C, Xue X, Dunlop M, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2012 Apr; 40(14):6558-69. PMID: 22492707
Homologous recombination (HR) represents a major error-free pathway to eliminate pre-carcinogenic chromosomal lesions. The DNA strand invasion reaction in HR is mediated by a helical filament of the Rad51 recombinase...

Akamatsu Y, Jasin M
PLoS Genet . 2010 Oct; 6(10):e1001160. PMID: 20976249
In fission yeast, the Swi5-Sfr1 complex plays an important role in homologous recombination (HR), a pathway crucial for the maintenance of genomic integrity. Here we identify and characterize mammalian Swi5...

Akamatsu Y, Murayama Y, Yamada T, Nakazaki T, Tsutsui Y, Ohta K, et al.
Mol Cell Biol . 2008 Apr; 28(11):3639-51. PMID: 18378696
The Schizosaccharomyces pombe nip1(+)/ctp1(+) gene was previously identified as an slr (synthetically lethal with rad2) mutant. Epistasis analysis indicated that Nip1/Ctp1 functions in Rhp51-dependent recombinational repair, together with the Rad32...

Haruta N, Akamatsu Y, Tsutsui Y, Kurokawa Y, Murayama Y, Arcangioli B, et al.
DNA Repair (Amst) . 2007 Aug; 7(1):1-9. PMID: 17716957
The Schizosaccharomyces pombe Swi5 protein forms two distinct protein complexes, Swi5-Sfr1 and Swi5-Swi2, each of which plays an important role in the related but functionally distinct processes of homologous recombination...

Akamatsu Y, Tsutsui Y, Morishita T, Siddique M, Kurokawa Y, Ikeguchi M, et al.
EMBO J . 2007 Feb; 26(5):1352-62. PMID: 17304215
Several accessory proteins referred to as mediators are required for the full activity of the Rad51 (Rhp51 in fission yeast) recombinase. In this study, we analyzed in vivo functions of...

Haruta N, Kurokawa Y, Murayama Y, Akamatsu Y, Unzai S, Tsutsui Y, et al.
Nat Struct Mol Biol . 2006 Aug; 13(9):823-30. PMID: 16921379
Nucleoprotein filaments made up of Rad51 or Dmc1 recombinases, the core structures of recombination, engage in ATP-dependent DNA-strand exchange. The ability of recombinases to form filaments is enhanced by recombination...

Akamatsu Y, Dziadkowiec D, Ikeguchi M, Shinagawa H, Iwasaki H
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2003 Dec; 100(26):15770-5. PMID: 14663140
Homologous recombination is an important biological process that occurs in all organisms and facilitates genome rearrangements and repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Eukaryotic Rad51 proteins (Rad51sp or Rhp51 in fission...

Kato A, Akamatsu Y, Sakuraba Y, Inoue H
Curr Genet . 2003 Nov; 45(1):37-44. PMID: 14595518
An allele called mus-19 was identified by screening temperature-sensitive and mutagen-sensitive mutants of Neurospora crassa. The mus-19 gene was genetically mapped to a region near the end of the right...
