Crystal structure of E. coli RdgC

Overview

The DNA-binding protein, RdgC, is associated with recombination and, replication fork repair in Escherichia coli and with the, virulence-associated, pilin antigenic variation mediated by RecA and other, recombination proteins in Neisseria species. We solved the structure of, the E. coli protein and refined it to 2.4A(.) RdgC crystallizes as a dimer, with a head-to-head, tail-to-tail organization forming a ring with a 30A, diameter hole at the center. The protein fold is unique and reminiscent of, a horseshoe with twin gates closing the open end. The central hole is, lined with positively charged residues and provides a highly plausible DNA, binding channel consistent with the nonspecific mode of binding detected, in vitro and with the ability of RdgC to modulate RecA function in vivo.
