Holliday junction DNA helicase

GENE NAME

Holliday junction DNA helicase

ORGANISM

Mycobacterium ulcerans (strain Agy99)

GENE NAME

ruvA

GENE ID

4551864

TDR TARGET ID

951700

PROTEIN LENGTH

197

ASSOCIATED METABOLIC PATHWAYS

Homologous recombination

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 a 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.
