DNA damage is usually lethal to all organisms. Homologous recombination plays an important role in the DNA damage-repair process in prokaryotic organisms. Two pathways are responsible for homologous recombination in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: the RecBCD pathway and the RecFOR pathway. RecR is an important regulator in the RecFOR homologous recombination pathway in P. aeruginosa. It forms complexes with RecF and RecO that can facilitate the loading of RecA onto ssDNA in the RecFOR pathway. Here, the crystal structure of RecR from P. aeruginosa PAO1 (PaRecR) is reported. PaRecR crystallizes in space group P6122, with two monomers per asymmetric unit. Analytical ultracentrifugation data show that PaRecR forms a stable dimer, but can exist as a tetramer in solution. The crystal structure shows that dimeric PaRecR forms a ring-like tetramer architecture via crystal symmetry. The presence of a ligand in the Walker B motif of one RecR subunit suggests a putative nucleotide-binding site.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
