A portable C-terminal rheostat calibrates RecE/Redα exonuclease activity for enhanced bacterial recombineering

Ji Luan, Chanjuan Jiang, Ruofei Guo, Chongyang Wang, Shaoqian Wang, A. Francis Stewart, Jun Fu, Youming Zhang, Hailong Wang

The paper identifies a highly active RecET recombinase pair for efficient homologous recombination in Streptomyces, enabling large DNA integration with minimal homology arms.

Short oligomers rather than rings of human RAD52 promote single-strand annealing

Maria A. Kharlamova, Manish Singh Kushwah, Tobias Jörg Jachowski, Sivaraman Subramaniam, A. Francis Stewart, Philipp Kukura, Erik Schäffer

This study shows that short RAD52 oligomers, not rings, mediate single-strand DNA annealing and homology detection, challenging the prevailing ring-based model.
