Structural highlights
FunctionUVRA_MYCTU The UvrABC repair system catalyzes the recognition and processing of DNA lesions. UvrA is an ATPase and a DNA-binding protein. A damage recognition complex composed of 2 UvrA and 2 UvrB subunits scans DNA for abnormalities. When the presence of a lesion has been verified by UvrB, the UvrA molecules dissociate. Alone it slightly inhibits RecA-mediated DNA strand exchange, in concert with UvrD1 greatly inhibits RecA-mediated DNA strand exchange.[1] [2] References
