"Renaturation of DNA catalysed by yeast DNA repair and recombination protein RAD10."

Sung P, Prakash L, Prakash S



Published Jan. 20, 1992 in Nature volume 355 .

Pubmed ID: 1741062

Abstract:
The RAD10 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for the incision step of excision repair of ultraviolet-damaged DNA, and it functions in mitotic recombination. RAD10 has homology to the human excision repair gene ERCC-1. Here we describe the purification of the protein encoded by RAD10 and show that it is a DNA-binding protein with a strong preference for single-stranded DNA. We also show that RAD10 promotes the renaturation of complementary DNA strands.
