Closed state of RFC:PCNA bound to a 3' ss/dsDNA junction

Structural highlights
FunctionRFC1_YEAST Component of the ATP-dependent clamp loader RFC complex for the POL30/PCNA homotrimer DNA clamp. During a clamp loading circle, the RFC:clamp complex binds to DNA and the recognition of the double-stranded/single-stranded junction stimulates ATP hydrolysis by RFC. The complex presumably provides bipartite ATP sites in which one subunit supplies a catalytic site for hydrolysis of ATP bound to the neighboring subunit. Dissociation of RFC from the clamp leaves the clamp encircling DNA. Replication factor C (RFC or activator 1) complex acts during elongation of primed DNA templates by DNA polymerase delta and epsilon. RFC has an essential but redundant activity in sister chromatid cohesion establishment. See AlsoContents | ||||||||||||||||||||
