Description
Two strands of DNA(shown in green) in the process
of homologous recombination forming a structure
known as a Holliday junction. This model shows the
complex formed between the E. coli RuvA protein
(blue) and the RuvB protein (yellow) and the DNA
molecule. The resolvase enzyme which cuts the DNA,
RuvC is shown in red.
