| Abstract | The RecA and some related proteins possess a simple motif, called (KR)X(KR), that (in RecA) consists of two lysine residues at positions 248 and 250 at the subunit-subunit interface. This study and previous work implicate this RecA motif in the following: (a) catalyzing ATP hydrolysis in trans,(b) coordinating the ATP hydrolytic cycles of adjacent subunits, (c) governing the rate of ATP hydrolysis, and (d) coupling the ATP hydrolysis to work (in this case DNA strand exchange). The conservative K250R mutation leaves RecA nucleoprotein filament formation largely intact. However, ATP hydrolysis is slowed to less than 15% of the wild-type rate. DNA strand exchange is also slowed commensurate with the rate of ATP hydrolysis. The results reinforce the idea of a tight coupling between ATP hydrolysis and DNA strand exchange. When a plasmid-borne RecA K250R protein is expressed in a cell otherwise lacking RecA protein, the growth of the cells is severely curtailed. The slow growth defect is alleviated in cells lacking RecFOR function, suggesting that the defect reflects loading of RecA at stalled replication forks. Suppressors occur as recA gene alterations, and their properties indicate that limited dissociation by RecA K250R confers the slow growth phenotype. Overall, the results suggest that recombinational DNA repair is a common occurrence in cells. RecA protein plays a sufficiently intimate role in the bacterial cell cycle that its properties can limit the growth rate of a bacterial culture. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
