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.
