A damage recognition complex composed of 2 UvrA and 2 UvrB subunits scans DNA for abnormalities. Upon binding of the UvrA(2)B(2) complex to a putative damaged site, the DNA wraps around one UvrB monomer. DNA wrap is dependent on ATP binding by UvrB and probably causes local melting of the DNA helix, facilitating insertion of UvrB beta-hairpin between the DNA strands. Then UvrB probes one DNA strand for the presence of a lesion. If a lesion is found the UvrA subunits dissociate and the UvrB-DNA preincision complex is formed. This complex is subsequently bound by UvrC and the second UvrB is released. If no lesion is found, the DNA wraps around the other UvrB subunit that will check the other stand for damage (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed In the nucleotide excision repair system, UvrB plays a central role in damage recognition and DNA incision by interacting with UvrA and UvrC. We have determined the crystal structure of Thermus thermophilus HB8 UvrB at 1.9 A resolution. UvrB comprises four domains, two of which have an alpha/beta structure resembling the core domains of DNA and RNA helicases. Additionally, UvrB has an alpha-helical domain and a domain consisting of antiparallel beta-sheets (beta-domain). The sequence similarity suggests that the beta-domain interacts with UvrA. Based on the distribution of the conserved regions and the structure of the PcrA-DNA complex, a model for the UvrB-DNA complex is proposed.
