Identification of fidelity-governing factors in human recombinases DMC1 and RAD51 from cryo-EM structures
RAD51 and DMC1 recombinases catalyse high-fidelity and mismatch tolerant recombination, processes that are indispensable for the maintenance of genomic integrity. Here, the authors via cryo-EM, molecular dynamics simulation and functional analysis elucidate the structural difference between RAD51 an...
