Understanding how structure shapes the architecture of homologous recombination
Cells have evolved multiple pathways to preserve genome integrity, with homologous recombination (HR) playing a central role in the accurate repair of DNA-double strand breaks (DSBs) by using homologous templates. Several proteins are involved in HR, and their mutations have been associated with cancer initiation and progression. In this review, we present an overview of recent structural insights into the HR pathway, highlighting the pivotal role of structural approaches in elucidating this complex and finely regulated DNA repair machinery, with the aim of advancing understanding and informing future research in the field.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Structural Biology (COSB) aims to stimulate scientifically grounded, interdisciplinary, multi-scale debate and exchange of ideas. It contains polished, concise and timely reviews and opinions, with particular emphasis on those articles published in the past two years. In addition to describing recent trends, the authors are encouraged to give their subjective opinion of the topics discussed.
In COSB, we help the reader by providing in a systematic manner:
1. The views of experts on current advances in their field in a clear and readable form.
2. Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.
[...]
The subject of Structural Biology is divided into twelve themed sections, each of which is reviewed once a year. Each issue contains two sections, and the amount of space devoted to each section is related to its importance.
-Folding and Binding-
Nucleic acids and their protein complexes-
Macromolecular Machines-
Theory and Simulation-
Sequences and Topology-
New constructs and expression of proteins-
Membranes-
Engineering and Design-
Carbohydrate-protein interactions and glycosylation-
Biophysical and molecular biological methods-
Multi-protein assemblies in signalling-
Catalysis and Regulation
