'''THE STRUCTURE OF THE E. COLI RECA PROTEIN MONOMER AND POLYMER'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
The crystal structure of the recA protein from Escherichia coli at 2.3-A, resolution reveals a major domain that binds ADP and probably single- and, double-stranded DNA. Two smaller subdomains at the N and C termini, protrude from the protein and respectively stabilize a 6(1) helical, polymer of protein subunits and interpolymer bundles. This polymer, structure closely resembles that of recA/DNA filaments determined by, electron microscopy. Mutations in recA protein that enhance coprotease, DNA-binding and/or strand-exchange activity can be explained if the, interpolymer interactions in the crystal reflect a regulatory mechanism in, vivo.
