General annotation (Comments)

Function

The UvrABC repair system catalyzes the recognition and processing of DNA lesions. A damage recognition complex composed of 2 UvrA and 2 UvrB subunits scans DNA for abnormalities. Upon binding of the UvrA2B2 complex to a putative damaged site, the DNA wraps around one UvrB monomer. DNA wrap is dependent on ATP binding by UvrB and probably causes local melting of the DNA helix, facilitating insertion of UvrB beta-hairpin between the DNA strands. Then UvrB probes one DNA strand for the presence of a lesion. If a lesion is found the UvrA subunits dissociate and the UvrB-DNA preincision complex is formed. This complex is subsequently bound by UvrC and the second UvrB is released. If no lesion is found, the DNA wraps around the other UvrB subunit that will check the other stand for damage. Ref.7

Subunit structure

Forms a heterotetramer with UvrA during the search for lesions. Interacts with UvrC in an incision complex.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm HAMAP-Rule MF_00204.

Domain

The beta-hairpin motif is involved in DNA binding. HAMAP-Rule MF_00204

Miscellaneous

According to Ref.1, a cleaved form of the protein was observed that resulted from the removal of about 40 amino acids from the C-terminus of the protein. The exact cleavage site being unknown, it was proposed to be between Lys-630 and Ala-631. There was no indication that cleavage occured in vivo and therefore it is not known if it has any physiological significance. HAMAP-Rule MF_00204

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the UvrB family.

Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain.

Contains 1 helicase C-terminal domain.

Contains 1 UVR domain.
