Summary: | Summary: C1orf112/FIRRM is a recently identified DNA damage repair factor that regulates RAD51 in homologous recombination through interacting with the anti-recombinase FIGNL1. Here, we describe steps for purifying C1orf112/FIRRM, FIGNL1, miBRCA2, and RAD51 proteins from Escherichia coli or Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. We then detail procedures for reconstituting the disassembly of RAD51 filament by C1orf112/FIRRM-FIGNL1 in vitro and the antagonistic effect between C1orf112/FIRRM-FIGNL1 and miBRCA2 on RAD51 filament stabilization.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Zhou et al. (2023).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
