Abstract:Holliday Junction (HJ) is an important intermediate for homologous recombination and is involved in DNA break repair. It is a highly dynamic structure and transitions between two stacked isomers through an intermediate open conformer. In a constrained cellular environment, HJ is expected to behave differently than in vitro. This can affect target recognition by junction-binding proteins and their subsequent functions. However, the studies on the effect of the confined environment on HJ is extremely scanty. In … Show more
