مستخلص: Templated DNA repair that occurs during homologous recombination and replication stress relies on RAD51. RAD51 activity is positively regulated by BRCA2 and the RAD51 paralogs. The Shu complex is a RAD51 paralog-containing complex consisting of SWSAP1, SWS1, and SPIDR. We demonstrate that SWSAP1-SWS1 binds RAD51, maintains RAD51 filament stability, and enables strand exchange. Using single-molecule confocal fluorescence microscopy combined with optical tweezers, we show that SWSAP1-SWS1 decorates RAD51 filaments proficient for homologous recombination. We also find SWSAP1-SWS1 enhances RPA diffusion on ssDNA. Importantly, we show human sgSWSAP1 and sgSWS1 knockout cells are sensitive to pharmacological inhibition of PARP and APE1. Lastly, we identify cancer variants in SWSAP1 that alter Shu complex formation. Together, we show that SWSAP1-SWS1 stimulates RAD51-dependent high-fidelity repair and may be an important new cancer therapeutic target. The human Shu complex promotes homologous recombination by regulating RAD51. Here the authors reveal that the Shu complex proteins, SWSAP1-SWS1, decorate the RAD51 filament on ssDNA and facilitate its strand exchange reaction by stimulating RPA diffusion on ssDNA. Lastly, that SWSAP1-SWS1 knockouts are Olaparib sensitive. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
