Force and ATP hydrolysis dependent regulation of RecA nucleoprotein filament by single-stranded DNA binding protein
In Escherichia coli, the filament of RecA formed on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is essential for recombinational DNA repair. Although ssDNA-binding protein (SSB) plays a complicated role in RecA reactions in vivo, much of our understanding of the mechanism is based on RecA binding directly to ssDNA....
