Mismatch repair factor MSH2-MSH3 binds and alters the conformation of branched DNA structures predicted to form during genetic recombination.

Abstract:

:Genetic studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae predict that the mismatch repair (MMR) factor MSH2-MSH3 binds and stabilizes branched recombination intermediates that form during single strand annealing and gene conversion. To test this model, we constructed a series of DNA substrates that are predicted to form during these recombination events. We show in an electrophoretic mobility shift assay that S. cerevisiae MSH2-MSH3 specifically binds branched DNA substrates containing 3' single-stranded DNA and that ATP stimulates its release from these substrates. Chemical footprinting analyses indicate that MSH2-MSH3 specifically binds at the double-strand/single-strand junction of branched substrates, alters its conformation and opens up the junction. Therefore, MSH2-MSH3 binding to its substrates creates a unique nucleoprotein structure that may signal downstream steps in repair that include interactions with MMR and nucleotide excision repair factors.
