Comments [?]

FUNCTIONA structure-specific endonuclease that resolves Holliday junction (HJ) intermediates during genetic recombination. Cleaves 4-way DNA junctions introducing paired nicks in opposing strands, leaving a 5'-terminal phosphate and a 3'-terminal hydroxyl group that are subsequently ligated to produce recombinant products.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=Endonucleolytic cleavage at a junction such as a reciprocal single-stranded crossover between two homologous DNA duplexes (Holliday junction).; EC=3.1.21.10;
case <FTGroup:1>
COFACTOR Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Note=Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion per subunit.;
end case
SUBUNITHomodimer.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the Holliday junction resolvase Hjc family.
