DNA Recombination
Roles Types Homologous recombination in E.coli Transposable elements
Biological Roles for Recombination
1. Deleterious mutations would accumulate in each chromosome. Recombination generates genetic diversity 多样性
2. Generating new gene/allele combinations (crossing over during meiosis)
3. Integration of a specific DNA element
4. Role in DNA damage and repair
5. Gene regulation
Practical Uses of Recombination
1. Used to map genes on chromosomes (recombination frequency proportional to
distance between genes)
2. Making transgenic cells and animals
Types of Recombination
1. Homologous - occurs between sequences that are nearly identical (e.g., during meiosis)
2. Site-Specific - occurs between sequences with a limited stretch of similarity; involves specific sites
3. Transposition – DNA element moves from one site to another, usually little sequence similarity involved

Holliday Model
R. Holliday (1964)
- Holliday Junctions form during recombination
- HJs can be resolved 2 ways, only one produces true recombinant molecules

Homologous recombination in E.coli
◘ This process involved the exchange of
homologous regions between two molecules

Chi site and RecBCD ptotein
E.coli also perform recombination,
the nick site in two homologous
DNA duplexes created by RecBCD
are near a specific sequence
called Chi site.
Chi site
◘ A Chi site is a short stretch of DNA near which homologous recombination is unusually likely to occur.
◘ In E. coli, the sequence is 5'-GCTGGTGG-3'. 1/5~10kb
◘ Chi serves as a signal to the RecBCD helicase-exonuclease.
RecBCD : A complex enzyme
◘ RecBCD enzyme is both a helicase and a nuclease
◘ RecBCD recognizes a specific sequence of Chi site.
◘ RecBCD cut one DNA strand close to Chi sequence

•RecBCD binds an end of linear dsDNA
•RecD helicase travels on the strand with a 5' end and RecB on the strand with a 3' end
•RecB is slower than RecD, so that a ssDNA loop accumulates ahead of RecB
•This produces DNA structures with two ss tails and one ss loop
•ss tails can anneal to produce a second ss loop complementary to the first one; such twin-loop structures were referred to as “rabbit ears.” •When RecBCD encounters a Chi site on the 3' ended strand, unwinding pauses and digestion of the 3' tail is reduced.
• The RecA protein is then actively loaded onto the 3' tail by RecBCD and form RecA-ssDNA filaments.
• RecA catalyzes branch migration and makes it possible to complete recombination

recBCD Pathway of Homologous Recombination Part I: Nicking and Exchanging
1. A nick is created in one strand by recBCD at a Chi sequence (GCTGGTGG), found every 5000 bp.
2. Unwinding of DNA containing Chi sequence by recBCD allows binding of SSB and recA.
3. recA promotes strand invasion into homologous DNA, displacing one strand.
4. The displaced strand base-pairs with the single strand left behind on the other chromosome.
5. The displaced and now paired strand is nicked (by recBCD?) to complete strand exchange.

Without functional RecA protein in E.coli, the exogenous plasmid DNA is left unaltered by the bacteria. Purification of this plasmid from bacterial cultures can then allow high-fidelity PCR amplification of the original plasmid sequence.

RecA Function Dissected
Three steps of strand exchange:1. Pre-synapsis: recA coats single stranded DNA
(accelerated by SSB, get more relaxed structure)
2. Synapsis 联会 : alignment of complementary sequences in SS and DS DNA (paranemic or side-by-side structure)
3. Post-synapsis or strand-exchange: SS DNA replaces the same strand in the duplex to form a new DS DNA (requires ATP hydrolysis)
RecA promotes the assimilation of invading single strands ( 单链同化) into duplex DNA so long as one of the reacting strands has a free
end.
Ruv protein and resolution resolution
of Holliday structuresof Holliday structures
Need three genes in E.coli, ruvA,ruvB and ruvC
a 、 RuvA recognize the junction of Holliday
b 、 RuvB provide energy for migration (ATPase 1
0 ~ 20bp/s ) c 、 RuvC nuclease cut Holliday junction specifically.
RuvA and RuvB
DNA helicase that catalyzes branch migrationRuvA tetramer binds to HJ (each DNA helix
between subunits)RuvB is a hexamer ring, has helicase & ATPase
activity 2 copies of ruvB bind at the HJ (to ruvA and 2 of
the DNA helices)Branch migration is in the direction of recA
mediated strand-exchange
RuvC : resolvase
Endonuclease that cuts 2 strands of HJBinds to HJ as a dimer Consensus sequence: (A/T)TT (G/C)
- occurs frequently in E. coli genome
- branch migration needed to reach consensus sequence!

4 、 Mechanism
◘ Core sequence is “O” 15bp , A-T rich
◘ exchange within O region : 7bp
◘ Int Binding site : attP 240bp 、 attB 23bp
◘ intasome (整合体) : Both Int
and IHF bind to attP and form an
intasome
◘ intasome recognize attB
a 、 attB and attP are identified
by Int
b 、 Homologous sequences is
important for recombination
◘ Int cleavages DNA lead to crosswise pairing holliday J
◘ Recombinant junction are resolved, sealed to generate
intergrated prophage DNA
5 、 The control of integration - excision
Control of the integration-excision reaction depends on:
(1) the forward (insertion) reaction, which requires only Int
among phage-specified proteins
(2) the reverse (excision) reaction, which requires the phage-
coded Int and Xis proteins
Knockout mouse
A genetically engineered mouse in which one or more genes have been turned off through a targeted mutation.
The first knockout mouse was created by Mario R. Capecchi, Martin Evans and Oliver Smithies in 1989, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 2007
