摘要：

Double-stranded DNA break repair by homologous recombination is initiated by resection of free DNA ends to produce a 3'-ssDNA overhang. In bacteria, this reaction is catalyzed by helicase-nuclease complexes such as AddAB in a manner regulated by specific recombination hotspot sequences called Crossover hotspot instigator (Chi). We have used magnetic tweezers to investigate the dynamics of AddAB translocation and hotspot scanning during double-stranded DNA break resection. AddAB was prone to stochastic pausing due to transient recognition of Chi-like sequences, unveiling an antagonistic relationship between DNA translocation and sequence-specific DNA recognition. Pauses at bona fide Chi sequences were longer, were nonexponentially distributed, and resulted in an altered velocity upon restart of translocation downstream of Chi. We propose a model for the recognition of Chi sequences to explain the origin of pausing during failed and successful hotspot recognition.
