Taxonomic identifier

2261 [NCBI]

Taxonomic lineage

Archaea › Euryarchaeota › Thermococci › Thermococcales › Thermococcaceae › Pyrococcus

Protein attributes

Sequence length	852 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Part of the RFC clamp loader complex which loads the PCNA sliding clamp onto DNA. The complex possesses DNA-dependent ATPase activity which is further stimulated by PCNA. Ref.2
Subunit structure	Heteromultimer composed of three to four small subunits (rfcS) and one to two large subunits (rfcL). Ref.2
Post-translational modification	This protein undergoes a protein self splicing that involves a post-translational excision of the intervening region (intein) followed by peptide ligation Potential.
Miscellaneous	The intein interrupts the potential ATP-binding site. HAMAP MF_01509
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the activator 1 small subunits family. RfcS subfamily. Contains 1 DOD-type homing endonuclease domain.
