CC Recognizes the chi site generating a DNA molecule suitable for the CC initiation of homologous recombination. The AddA nuclease domain is CC required for chi fragment generation; this subunit has the helicase and CC 3' -> 5' nuclease activities. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=Couples ATP hydrolysis with the unwinding of duplex DNA by CC translocating in the 3'-5' direction.; EC=5.6.2.4; CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=ATP + H2O = ADP + H(+) + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:13065, CC ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, CC ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=5.6.2.4; CC -!- COFACTOR: CC Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of AddA and AddB/RexB. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the helicase family. AddA subfamily.
