Rec2 interplay with both Brh2 and Rad51 balances recombinational repair in Ustilago maydis.

Abstract excerpt

Rec2 is the single Rad51 paralog in Ustilago maydis. Here, we find that Rec2 is required for radiation-induced Rad51 nuclear focus formation but that Rec2 foci form independently of Rad51 and Brh2. Brh2 foci also form in the absence of Rad51 and Rec2. By coprecipitation from cleared extracts prepared from Escherichia coli cells expressing the proteins, we found that Rec2 interacts physically not only with Rad51...
