From the The Escherichia coli RuvB protein is
a motor protein that forms a complex with RuvA and promotes branch
migration of Holliday junctions during homologous recombination. This
study describes the characteristics of two RuvB mutants, I148T and
I150T, that do not promote branch migration in the presence of RuvA.
These RuvB mutants hydrolyzed ATP and bound duplex DNA with the same efficiency as wild-type RuvB, but the mutants did not form a complex with RuvA and were defective in loading onto junction DNA in a RuvA-assisted manner. A recent crystallographic study revealed that
Ile148 and Ile150 are in a unique

that protrudes from the AAA+ ATPase domain of RuvB. We
propose that this
-hairpin interacts with hydrophobic residues in
the mobile third domain of RuvA and that this interaction is vital for
the RuvA-assisted loading of RuvB onto Holliday junction DNA.
