DMC1 and RAD51 bind FxxA and FxPP motifs of BRCA2 via two separate interfaces
2023-10-05
Abstract excerpt
In vertebrates, the BRCA2 protein is essential for meiotic and somatic homologous recombination (HR) due to its interaction with RAD51 and DMC1 strand exchange proteins (recombinases). The interaction is mediated by FxxA and FxPP motifs, whose defining feature is the invariant phenylalanine. The FxxA motifs, present in the eight BRC repeats in the central region of BRCA2, compete with the FxxA motif of the linker...
