UniProtKB - Q8UFK2 (LEXA_AGRFC)
Protein
LexA repressor
Gene
lexA
Organism
Agrobacterium fabrum (strain C58 / ATCC 33970) (Agrobacterium tumefaciens (strain C58))
Status
Functioni
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.UniRule annotation
Catalytic activityi
- Hydrolysis of Ala-|-Gly bond in repressor LexA.UniRule annotation EC:3.4.21.88
