Description

Background:

  1. coli RuvA protein binds specifically to the Holliday structure which is the intermediate of recombination at the late stage of homologous recombination and recombination repair and forms a complex with RuvB motor protein allowing the migration of Holliday junction using ATP hydrolysis energy and expands the heteroduplex region. In solution, it forms a tetramer and binds to the cross-like DNA of the Holliday junction from below and above holding it in between (1, 2).

The molecular weight of the monomer is 22 kD.

 

Specifications:

  • Form: 50% glycerol, 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH7.5), 2 mM EDTA, 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM mercaptoethanol
  • Purity: RuvA protein over 90% by SDS-PAGE (CBB staining)
  • Concentration: 2.7 mg/ml (determined by BCA method)
  • Storage: Ship at 4℃ or -20℃. Spin-down and store at -20℃ or -80℃ for longer period.
