ruvB

Unnamed Gene ID: 946371

Known also as: ECK1861; JW1849;


NCBI Gene ID: 946371
Species: Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655

May directly convert replication forks into Holliday junctions. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10924]. RuvABC is an enzymatic complex which functions in recombination pathways by binding to recombinational junctions and catalyzing strand cleavage and branch migration. [More information is available at EcoCyc: RUVB].
