'''STRUCTURE OF THE HOLLIDAY JUNCTION INTERMEDIATE IN CRE-LOXP SITE-SPECIFIC RECOMBINATION'''<br />


==Overview==
==STRUCTURE OF THE HOLLIDAY JUNCTION INTERMEDIATE IN CRE-LOXP SITE-SPECIFIC RECOMBINATION==
We have determined the X-ray crystal structures of two DNA Holliday, junctions (HJs) bound by Cre recombinase. The HJ is a four-way branched, structure that occurs as an intermediate in genetic recombination, pathways, including site-specific recombination by the lambda-integrase, family. Cre recombinase is an integrase family member that recombines 34, bp loxP sites in the absence of accessory proteins or auxiliary DNA, sequences. The 2.7 A structure of Cre recombinase bound to an immobile HJ, and the 2.5 A structure of Cre recombinase bound to a symmetric, nicked HJ, reveal a nearly planar, twofold-symmetric DNA intermediate that shares, features with both the stacked-X and the square conformations of the HJ, that exist in the unbound state. The structures support a protein-mediated, ... [[http://ispc.weizmann.ac.il/pmbin/getpm?9670032 (full description)]]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
We have determined the X-ray crystal structures of two DNA Holliday junctions (HJs) bound by Cre recombinase. The HJ is a four-way branched structure that occurs as an intermediate in genetic recombination pathways, including site-specific recombination by the lambda-integrase family. Cre recombinase is an integrase family member that recombines 34 bp loxP sites in the absence of accessory proteins or auxiliary DNA sequences. The 2.7 A structure of Cre recombinase bound to an immobile HJ and the 2.5 A structure of Cre recombinase bound to a symmetric, nicked HJ reveal a nearly planar, twofold-symmetric DNA intermediate that shares features with both the stacked-X and the square conformations of the HJ that exist in the unbound state. The structures support a protein-mediated crossover isomerization of the junction that acts as the switch responsible for activation and deactivation of recombinase active sites. In this model, a subtle isomerization of the Cre recombinase-HJ quaternary structure dictates which strands are cleaved during resolution of the junction via a mechanism that involves neither branch migration nor helical restacking.
