RecA protein


RecA protein
The protein encoded by the recA gene which is essential for homologous recombination. The RecA protein is also involved in the induction of the SOS response and the induction of lambda prophage in response to DNA damaging agents.
Full article >>>

The recA protein binds single-stranded DNA, incorporating the DNA into a helical complex with 6 recA molecules and 22 nucleotides/ turn. Adjacent bases are 1.5 times as far apart as they are in a B-DNA double helix.

Repair systems (recA; uvr) induced by the presence of single-stranded DNA that usually occurs from postreplicative gaps caused by various types of DNA damage. The RecA protein, stimulated by single-stranded DNA, ...
