The cohesin-like RecN protein stimulates RecA-mediated recombinational repair of DNA double-strand breaks
RecN is a cohesin-like molecule involved in the bacterial response to DNA double-strand breaks. Here the authors provide evidence that RecN stimulates the DNA strand invasion step of RecA-mediated recombination.
