Structure of the human Replication Protein A (RPA) trimerization core
Structural highlights
Function[RFA3_HUMAN] Required for DNA recombination, repair and replication. The activity of RP-A is mediated by single-stranded DNA binding and protein interactions.[1] [2] Functions as component of the alternative replication protein A complex (aRPA). aRPA binds single-stranded DNA and probably plays a role in DNA repair; it does not support chromosomal DNA replication and cell cycle progression through S-phase. In vitro, aRPA cannot promote efficient priming by DNA polymerase alpha but supports DNA polymerase delta synthesis in the presence of PCNA and replication factor C (RFC), the dual incision/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair and RAD51-dependent strand exchange.[3] [4] [RFA1_HUMAN] Plays an essential role in several cellular processes in DNA metabolism including replication, recombination and DNA repair. Binds and subsequently stabilizes single-stranded DNA intermediates and thus prevents complementary DNA from reannealing.[5] [6] Functions as component of the alternative replication protein A complex (aRPA). aRPA binds single-stranded DNA and probably plays a role in DNA repair; it does not support chromosomal DNA replication and cell cycle progression through S-phase. In vitro, aRPA cannot promote efficient priming by DNA polymerase alpha but supports DNA polymerase delta synthesis in the presence of PCNA and replication factor C (RFC), the dual incision/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair and RAD51-dependent strand exchange.[7] [8] [RFA2_HUMAN] Required for DNA recombination, repair and replication. The activity of RP-A is mediated by single-stranded DNA binding and protein interactions. Required for the efficient recruitment of the DNA double-strand break repair factor RAD51 to chromatin in response to DNA damage.[9] [10] [11] [12] Functions as component of the alternative replication protein A complex (aRPA). aRPA binds single-stranded DNA and probably plays a role in DNA repair; it does not support chromosomal DNA replication and cell cycle progression through S-phase. In vitro, aRPA cannot promote efficient priming by DNA polymerase alpha but supports DNA polymerase delta synthesis in the presence of PCNA and replication factor C (RFC), the dual incision/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair and RAD51-dependent strand exchange.[13] [14] [15] [16] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe human single-stranded DNA-binding protein, replication protein A (RPA) binds DNA in at least two different modes: initial [8-10 nucleotides (nt)] and stable ( approximately 30 nt). Switching from 8 to 30 nt mode is associated with a large conformational change. Here we report the 2.8 A structure of the RPA trimerization core comprising the C-terminal DNA-binding domain of subunit RPA70 (DBD-C), the central DNA-binding domain of subunit RPA32 (DBD-D) and the entire RPA14 subunit. All three domains are built around a central oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide binding (OB)-fold and flanked by a helix at the C-terminus. Trimerization is mediated by three C-terminal helices arranged in parallel. The OB-fold of DBD-C possesses unique structural features; embedded zinc ribbon and helix-turn-helix motifs. Using time-resolved proteolysis with trypsin, we demonstrate that the trimerization core does not contribute to the binding with substrates of 10 nt, but interacts with oligonucleotides of 24 nt. Taken together, our data indicate that switching from 8-10 to 30 nt mode is mediated by DNA binding with the trimerization core.
