Abstract
|
|
|
RAD51 is a recombinase involved in the homologous recombination of double-strand
breaks in DNA. RAD51 forms oligomers by binding to another molecule of RAD51 via
an 'FxxA' motif, and the same recognition sequence is similarly utilised to bind
BRCA2. We have tabulated the effects of mutation of this sequence, across a
variety of experimental methods and from relevant mutations observed in the
clinic. We use mutants of a tetrapeptide sequence to probe the binding
interaction, using both isothermal titration calorimetry and X-ray
crystallography. Where possible, comparison between our tetrapeptide mutational
study and the previously reported mutations is made, discrepancies are discussed
and the importance of secondary structure in interpreting alanine scanning and
mutational data of this nature is considered.
