pubmed:abstractText |
Homologous recombination in Escherichia coli is initiated by the RecBCD enzyme, and is stimulated by DNA elements known as Chi (chi) sites. The RecBCD enzyme is both a helicase and a nuclease. Recognition of chi causes both attenuation of the 3'-->5' exonuclease activity of the RecBCD enzyme, and activation of an exonuclease activity with 5'-->3' polarity, while leaving the helicase activity unaffected. A variety of evidence suggests that chi-recognition by RecBCD enzyme is accompanied by ejection of the RecD subunit.

pubmed:articleTitle |
Chi-activated RecBCD enzyme possesses 5'-->3' nucleolytic activity, but RecBC enzyme does not: evidence suggesting that the alteration induced by Chi is not simply ejection of the RecD subunit.
