General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution the enzyme belongs to the RecA/RadA family of recombinase proteins of the AAA + ATPases, including RecA proteins of bacteria, RadAs in archaea, Rad51 and DMC1 proteins in Eukaryotes. Archaea and eukaryotes encode RadA/Rad51 paralogues, such as Rad55/57 in yeast, Rad51B/C/D, Xrcc2 and Xrcc3 in mammals, and RadB, RadC in Archaea, which facilitate homologous recombination by interacting with RadA/Rad51 recombinases. Archaeal RadA and eukaryotic Rad51 proteins show high amino acid sequence identities to each other (over 40%) but they are more distantly related to bacterial RecA proteins, exhibiting about 20% sequence identity. Archaeal and eukaryotic recombinases are also more closely related to each other at protein domain structure. RadA paralogues represent another major group of AAA + ATPases involved in DNA damage repair in Archaea Archaeoglobus fulgidus

metabolism nanobiomotors perform various important functions in the cell, and they also emerge as potential vehicle for drug delivery. The proteins employ conserved ATPase domains to convert chemical energy to mechanical work and motion. Some are active during DNA damage repair. All nanobiomotors contain an ATPase domain that adopts RecA fold structure, characteristic for RecA/RadA family proteins, structural analyses of archaeal nucleic acid biomotors and the molecular mechanisms of how ATP binding and hydrolysis promote the conformation change that drives mechanical motion Archaeoglobus fulgidus

physiological function homologous recombination protein RadA/Rad51 recombinase binds to 3'-pertruding ends of dsDNA mediating the strand invasion reaction in homologous recombination. The recombinases are essential mediators of homologous recombination, an activity that is required for repairing dsDNA breaks and re-starting of stalled DNA replication forks. The RecA/RadA-facilitated strand exchange reaction occurs in two steps: (a) the recombinases bind to ssDNA, forming a nucleoprotein complex, and (b) the nucleoprotein complex invades a homologous dsDNA, such that the invading RadA-ssDNA base pairs with the complimentary strand of the dsDNA whereas the other stranded of the DNA becomes ssDNA, forming a so-called D-loop structure. The D-loop structure is a very important intermediate in DNA repair or DNA replication processes. Rotation mechanism of the enzyme nanobiomotor Thermoplasma acidophilum

The D-loop structure is a very important intermediate in DNA repair or DNA replication processes. Rotation mechanism of the enzyme nanobiomotor. RadA provides a prototype nanobiomotor for studying conversion of chemical energy to mechanical movement. In the clockwise rotation model, ATP binding and hydrolysis at the core domain result in repositioning of NTD and core domain and rotation between two adjacent subunits. Unlike most nanobiomotors that translocate along DNA, RadA polymers do not move along ssDNA or dsDNA but rotate around the axis like F1 ATPase Sulfurisphaera tokodaii

physiological function homologous recombination protein RadA/Rad51 recombinase binds to 3'-pertruding ends of dsDNA mediating the strand invasion reaction in homologous recombination. The recombinases are essential mediators of homologous recombination, an activity that is required for repairing dsDNA breaks and re-starting of stalled DNA replication forks. The RecA/RadA-facilitated strand exchange reaction occurs in two steps: (a) the recombinases bind to ssDNA, forming a nucleoprotein complex, and (b) the nucleoprotein complex invades a homologous dsDNA, such that the invading RadA-ssDNA base pairs with the complimentary strand of the dsDNA whereas the other stranded of the DNA becomes ssDNA, forming a so-called D-loop structure. The D-loop structure is a very important intermediate in DNA repair or DNA replication processes. Rotation mechanism of the enzyme nanobiomotor. RadA provides a prototype nanobiomotor for studying conversion of chemical energy to mechanical movement. In the clockwise rotation model, ATP binding and hydrolysis at the core domain result in repositioning of NTD and core domain and rotation between two adjacent subunits. Unlike most nanobiomotors that translocate along DNA, RadA polymers do not move along ssDNA or dsDNA but rotate around the axis like F1 ATPase Methanococcus voltae
