The adeno-associated virus (AAV) Rep proteins use a unique AAA+ domain to catalyze DNA replication, transcription regulation, and genome packaging. Also, they mediate site-specific integration during a latent phase. To understand the mechanisms underlying AAV Rep function, we investigated the cryo-EM and X-ray structures of Rep68-ssDNA complexes. Surprisingly, Rep68 generates hybrid ring structures where the Origin-Binding-Domain (OBD) forms octameric rings while the helicase...
