| - | ==Overview==
| + | |
| - | Holliday junctions occur as intermediates in homologous recombination and, DNA repair. In bacteria, resolution of Holliday junctions is accomplished, by the RuvABC system, consisting of a junction-specific helicase complex, RuvAB, which promotes branch migration, and a junction-specific, endonuclease RuvC, which nicks two strands. The crystal structure of a, complex between the RuvA protein of M. leprae and a synthetic four-way, junction has now been determined. Rather than binding on the open surface, of a RuvA tetramer as previously suggested, the DNA is sandwiched between, two RuvA tetramers, which form a closed octameric shell, stabilized by a, conserved tetramer-tetramer interface. Interactions between the DNA, backbone and helix-hairpin-helix motifs from both tetramers suggest a, mechanism for strand separation promoted by RuvA.
