Homologous Recombination
Endonuclease activity of RecBCD is greater in the 3'-5' strand, rather than the 5'-3' strand. Describe how this affects strand invasion, branch migration and resolution
RecBcD is unusual among helicases as it hastwo helicases that travel with different rates and because it can recognize and be altered by Chi DNA sequence. RecBCD avidly binds an end of linear dsDNA.Rec D helicase travel on strand with 5'end at which enzyme initiates unwinding and Rec B on strandwith 3'end.Rec B is slower then Rec D so that ss DNA loop accumulate ahead of Rec B .This produce DNA structures with two ss tails , a shorter 3'ended tail and longer 5'ended tail and one ss loop.
During unwinding nuclease in RecB can act in different ways depending on reaction conditions notably the ratio of Mg2+ ions and ATP.
1. If ATP is in excess enzyme simply nicks strand with Chi ie. strand with initial 3'end.Unwinding continues produce 3'ss tail with chi near terminus which can be bound by Rec A protein ehich promote strand exchange.when RecBCD reaches end of DNA all 3 subunits disaasemble .RecBCD acted at chidoes not attack another DNA molecule.
2.iF Mg+2 is excess,RecBCD cleaves both DNA strands Eendonucleatically although 5' tail is cleaved less often..When Rec BCD encounter chi site on 3'end unwinding pauses. and digestion of 3'tail is reduced.
under both reaction 3'end remain intact. recA protein isactively loaded on 3'tail .Rec BCD dissociate from DNA.rEC a initiates exchange of DNA. The joint DNA molecule is resolved by replication or by cleavage of D loop or formation of HOLIDAY JUNCTION whichcan be resolved by RuvABC COMPLEX.Each of these events generate intact DNA with new combination of genetic marker by which parental DNA differ.This process of HOMOLOGOUS RECOMBINATION completes repair of dsDNA break.

Question 1 4 pts Which characteristic listed below is not shared between homologous recombination in Holiday model and doubled-strand (DS) DNA repair mechanism. ODS break locates on the same chromosome. Branch migration Strand invasion or exchange. Presence of sister chromatids.
Haploid yeast cells that preferentially repair double-strand breaks by homologous recombination (rather than by non-homologous end joining) are especially sensitive to agents that cause double-strand breaks in DNA. If the breaks occur in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, most cells will die; however, if the breaks occur in the G2 phase, a much higher fraction of cells survive. Why do you suppose this is?

For each of the following steps of recombination at the molecular level, briefly describe what is happening and draw out what the chromatids look like (just the DNA, don't need to draw out the proteins), and what proteins are involved in each step. 1. Double strand break formation 2. Resection 3. First strand invasion 4. Formation of the double Holliday junction 5. Branch migration 6. Resolution
The process of homologous recombination is a means to repair double-strand breaks, the most lethal form of DNA damage. Arrange the sequence of events in the proper order: 1. ATR recognizes single-stranded ends, binds to them, and initiates signaling. 2. RAD51 complexes with ssDNA and searches for homologous sequences. 3. MRN nuclease trims the 5' ends, leaving ss-3' ends that are coated with replication protein A. 4. ATM activates a nuclease in MRN and signals downstream effectors. 5. RAD51-ssDNA complex...
See the diagram below regarding the process of V-J recombination. After RAG1,2 activity and hairpin formation, an endonuclease cuts at the positions marked by the arrows. CATGCG is then added to the D gene segment and ACAGG is added to the gene segment. In the absence of any further modification, the two gene segments are filled in and then ligated together. Answer the following in the essay box provided. First - provide the full name of the enzyme that adds...
