ATPase Activity ofBacillus subtilisRecA Affects the DynamicFormation of RecA Filaments at DNA Double Strand Breaks

RecA plays a central role in DNA repair and is a main actor involved in homologous recombination (HR). In vivo, RecA forms filamentous structures termed “threads,” which are essential for HR, but whose nature is still ill defined. We show that RecA from Bacillus subtilis having lower ATP binding act...
