Names and origin

Protein namesRecommended name:
LexA repressor

EC=3.4.21.88
Gene names
Name:lexA
Ordered Locus Names:STH1736
OrganismSymbiobacterium thermophilum [Complete proteome] [HAMAP]
Taxonomic identifier2734 [NCBI]
Taxonomic lineageBacteriaFirmicutesClostridiaClostridialesClostridiales Family XVIII. Incertae SedisSymbiobacterium

Protein attributes

Sequence length205 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceInferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Represses a number of genes involved in the response to DNA damage (SOS response), including recA and lexA. In the presence of single-stranded DNA, recA interacts with lexA causing an autocatalytic cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of lexA, leading to derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair By similarity. HAMAP MF_00015

Catalytic activity

Hydrolysis of Ala-|-Gly bond in repressor lexA. HAMAP MF_00015

Subunit structure

Homodimer By similarity. HAMAP MF_00015

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase S24 family.
