Applications: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.

Assay Conditions: Various amounts of Rad51 were preincubated with 3 µl of DNA substrate for 10 minutes at 37°C. The reaction was started by adding 2 µl of ATP (final concentration 1 mM). After incubation for 1 hour at 37°C, the released phosphate was quenched by the addition of 100 µl of Biomol Green reagent. Absorbance was measured at λ=620 nm using a M1000 Tecan plate reader set up in kinetic mode (endpoint reading at 15 minutes).

Background: Rad51 (Radiation sensitive protein 51) is an ATP-dependent DNA repair protein with recombinase activity. It assembles on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) as an oligomeric nucleoprotein filament where it starts by displacing RPA complexes in concert with Rad51 mediators. These mediators include BRCA1 (breast cancer type 1), BRCA2 and PALB2 (partner and localizer of BRCA2), and they accelerate the recruitment and nucleation of Rad51 to the RPA-coated ssDNA. The Rad51 filaments do homology search and strand invasion, allowing for DNA repair to occur. Mutations in Rad51 correlate with cancer predisposition. Rad51 expression is elevated in many cancer types, which may be a compensatory mechanism for cells trying to deal with a high level of DNA damage. Rad51 overexpression in cancer cells contributes to the onset of resistance to DNA-damaging agents such as the ones used in cancer treatment. The use of Rad51 inhibitors targeting Rad51 function or interaction with other proteins may prove beneficial in oncology as DNA-damage sensitizing agents.
