タイトル Rad50 zinc hook functions as a constitutive dimerization module interchangeable with SMC hinge.
ジャーナル Nat Commun
Abstract The human Mre11/Rad50 complex is one of the key factors in genome maintenance pathways. Previous nanoscale imaging by atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed that the ring-like structure of the human Mre11/Rad50 complex transiently opens at the zinc hook of Rad50. However, imaging of the human Mre11/Rad50 complex by high-speed AFM shows that the Rad50 coiled-coil arms are consistently bridged by the dimerized hooks while the Mre11/Rad50 ring opens by disconnecting the head domains; resembling other SMC proteins such as cohesin or condensin. These architectural features are conserved in the yeast and bacterial Mre11/Rad50 complexes. Yeast strains harboring the chimeric Mre11/Rad50 complex containing the SMC hinge of bacterial condensin MukB instead of the RAD50 hook properly functions in DNA repair. We propose that the basic role of the Rad50 hook is similar to that of the SMC hinge, which serves as rather stable dimerization interface.
