Identifier RECA
Protein name RecName: Full=Protein RecA;
AltName: Full=Recombinase A;
Gene name Name=recA;

Comments [?]

FUNCTIONCan catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of single- stranded DNA, the ATP-dependent uptake of single-stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the ATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic cleavage.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the RecA family.
