  • Homology-driven chromatin remodeling by human RAD54. Abstract Text:

    zhaoqing zhangZhaoqing Zhang,hua-ying fanHua-Ying Fan,joseph a goldmanJoseph A Goldman,robert e kingstonRobert E Kingston,

    Human RAD51 and RAD54 are key players in homologous recombination, a process that requires homology recognition and strand invasion by a RAD51-single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) nucleoprotein filament and chromatin remodeling by RAD54. Here we use in vitro chromatin reconstitution systems to show that RAD51-ssDNA stimulates RAD54-dependent chromatin remodeling in a homology-dependent, polarity-independent manner. This stimulation was not seen with RAD54B or other remodelers. Chromatin remodeling by RAD54 enabled strand invasion by RAD51-ssDNA on nucleosomal templates, which was homology- and polarity-dependent. Three natural RAD54 mutants found in primary cancer cells showed specific defects in remodeling or in the RAD54-RAD51 interaction. We propose that RAD54 is recruited by RAD51-ssDNA filament to the chromatin of the intact chromosome and that it remodels that chromatin to facilitate accessibility for strand exchange.
