RuvA

Protein FULL name:

unnamed protein product [Escherichia coli].


RuvA (Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655) is product of expression of ruvA gene.


RuvA is involved in:

HRR in Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655 DDS in Escherichia coli strain K-12 substr. MG1655
     





FUNCTION: The ruvA-ruvB complex in the presence of ATP renatures cruciform structure in supercoiled DNA with palindromic sequence, indicating that it may promote strand exchange reactions in homologous recombination. RuvAB is an helicase that mediates the Holliday junction migration by localized denaturation and reannealing. RuvA stimulates, in the presence of DNA, the weak ATPase activity of ruvB. Binds both single- and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Binds preferentially to supercoiled rather than to relaxed dsDNA.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + H(2)O = ADP + phosphate.

SUBUNIT: Homotetramer; forms a complex with ruvB.

INDUCTION: Expression of the ruv region is induced by damage to DNA and is regulated by lexA as part of the SOS response. RuvA and ruvB are also involved in mutagenesis induced by UV and X irradiation and by some chemicals.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ruvA family.
