Short Name | Psy3 |
description | Psy3 is a component of the Shu complex (also known as PCSS complex) involved in the error-free DNA post-replication repair (PRR) []. Psy3 forms a complex first with Cms2, and their L2 loops confer the DNA-binding activity to the Shu complex [, ]. The Shu complex binds to recombination sites and is required for Rad51 assembly and function during meiosis. Psy3-Csm2 constitutes a core sub-complex that can stabilise the Rad51-single-stranded DNA complex independently of nucleotide cofactor []. |
