RuvC is a highly conserved bacterial protein that plays a central role in homologous recombination, a critical process for DNA repair and genetic diversity. Discovered in *Escherichia coli*, it functions as a structure-specific endonuclease responsible for resolving Holliday junctions (HJs)—four-way DNA intermediates formed during recombination. These junctions link homologous DNA strands, and their proper resolution ensures accurate chromosome segregation and genome stability.
The RuvC protein operates as a dimer, with each monomer containing a catalytic site featuring a conserved RNase H-like fold. It recognizes and cleaves HJs symmetrically at specific nucleotide sequences (5'-ATTG-3' in *E. coli*), generating nicks in two opposing DNA strands to "unlink" recombining chromosomes. This cleavage activity is tightly coordinated with other recombination proteins: RuvA binds and stabilizes HJs, while RuvB uses ATPase activity to branch-migrate the junction, positioning it for RuvC-mediated resolution. Together, the RuvABC complex ensures efficient repair of double-strand breaks and restart of stalled replication forks.
Beyond its biological role, RuvC has garnered interest in biotechnology. Its HJ-targeting mechanism inspired early genome engineering tools, and recent studies explore its potential in CRISPR-associated systems for precise DNA editing. However, unlike Cas9. RuvC’s sequence specificity and cleavage symmetry present unique challenges and opportunities for synthetic biology applications.
Research on RuvC continues to shed light on evolutionary conservation of recombination machinery, antimicrobial resistance mechanisms (via horizontal gene transfer), and strategies to manipulate DNA repair pathways in therapeutic contexts. Its biochemical properties remain a model for understanding how proteins process complex DNA structures with high fidelity.
