Abstract:
Single-stranded DNA binding proteins (SSBs) are critical for binding, protecting and sequestering single-stranded DNA intermediates during multiple cellular transactions, including DNA replication, repair and transcription. The canonical SSB in eukaryotes, Replication Protein A (RPA), is a heterotrimeric protein essential for numerous cellular processes, including DNA repair by homologous recombination (HR). Recently, Richard et al. (2008) identified a novel human SSB, designated human Single-Stranded DNA Binding protein 1 (hSSB1), critical to DNA repair and the maintenance of genomic stabilit

Dda, one of three helicases encoded by bacteriophage T4, has been well- characterized biochemically but its biological role remains unclear. It is thought to be involved in origin-dependent replication, recombination-dependent replication, anti- recombination, recombination repair, as well as in replication fork progression past template-bound nucleosomes and RNA polymerase. One of the proteins that most strongly interacts with Dda, Gp32, is the only single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB) encoded by T4, is essential for DNA replication, recombination, and repair.

Replication protein A (RPA) is a single-stranded DNA-binding protein that is present in all three domains of life. The roles of RPA include stabilising and protecting single- stranded DNA from nuclease degradation during DNA replication and repair. To achieve this, RPA uses an oligosaccharide-binding fold (OB fold) to bind single- stranded DNA. Haloferax volcanii encodes three RPAs – RPA1, RPA2 and RPA3, of which rpa1 and rpa3 are in operons with genes encoding associated proteins (APs). The APs belong to the COG3390 group of proteins found in Euryarchaeota and feature an OB fold. Genetic anal

The homotetrameric E. coli SSB and the heterotrimeric human RPA demonstrate how SSBs can vary structurally, but all fulfil their roles by employing oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide binding (OB) folds.

Human single-stranded DNA-binding protein 1 (hSSB1) is required for the timely repair of double-strand DNA breaks, as well as the stabilisation and restart of stalled replication forks. In this work, evidence is provided that cellular survival in response to replication stress is promoted by dynamic phosphorylation of hSSB1 by the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) and PPP-family protein phosphatases. These data provide insight into the functional regulation of hSSB1 following replication fork disruption.

Abstract:
Single stranded DNA binding proteins (SSB) play a major role in cellular DNA processing events such as replication, recombination and repair and are central to maintaining the integrity of our genome. These processes require the DNA double helix to unwind, exposing less stable and highly vulnerable regions of single stranded DNA (ssDNA). SSB proteins bind ssDNA via a highly conserved oligonucleotide-binding (OB) domain and function to temporarily bind and protect exposed ssDNA generated during these events. The vital role of SSBs is evident from their ubiquitous presence in all forms of life.
