Hin recombinase-DNA complex

Hin recombinase-DNA complex. Molecular model of the Hin recombinase protein (pink) bound to a double helix (green and orange) strand of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). A recombinase is an enzyme that mediates genetic recombination by binding to DNA to form complexes like the one shown here. Only the amino acid binding domain of the Hin recombinase is shown here. This domain is a three-alpha-helix bundle with the carboxyl-terminal helix inserted into the DNA strands major groove and polypeptide chains either side binding with bases in the DNA strands minor groove

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate Hin recombinase-DNA complex, revealing the fascinating world of genetic recombination. The molecular model depicts the Hin recombinase protein in a striking pink hue, elegantly bound to a double helix strand of DNA colored in green and orange. Recombinases like Hin are essential enzymes that facilitate genetic recombination by forming complexes with DNA, as exemplified here. In this image, only the amino acid binding domain of the Hin recombinase is highlighted, showcasing its three-alpha-helix bundle structure. The carboxyl-terminal helix is visibly inserted into the major groove of the DNA strands while polypeptide chains on either side bind with bases in the minor groove. The white background enhances focus on this remarkable biochemical interaction between protein and nucleic acid. This visually stunning artwork not only captures our attention but also provides valuable insights into molecular biology and genetics. With its meticulous detail and scientific accuracy, this print from Science Photo Library serves as a powerful educational tool for researchers, students, and enthusiasts alike. It invites us to delve deeper into understanding how proteins like Hin recombinase play crucial roles in manipulating DNA molecules during genetic processes.
