pubmed:abstractText |
Human HsRad51 protein assembles on a DNA molecule through cooperative binding and forms a long filament for homologous recombination. We have characterized the self-assembly of HsRad51 by measuring the fluorescence resonance energy transfer from the fluorescein-labeled protein to the rhodamine-labeled protein. Self-assembly quickly reached equilibrium and can be described by the head-to-tail polymerization of monomers, like that of its procaryotic homologue, RecA. It depended strongly on pH and was inhibited by high salt concentrations, indicating that ionic interactions between negatively and positively charged aminoacid residues are important. By contrast, neither ATP nor ADP significantly affected the reaction.
