Binds CC cooperatively to specific DNA consensus sequences that are separated CC from XerC binding sites by a short central region, forming the CC heterotetrameric XerC-XerD complex that recombines DNA substrates. The CC complex is essential to convert dimers of the bacterial chromosome into CC monomers to permit their segregation at cell division. It also CC contributes to the segregational stability of plasmids. In the complex CC XerD specifically exchanges the bottom DNA strands. CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: FtsK may regulate the catalytic switch between CC XerC and XerD in the heterotetrameric complex during the two steps of CC the recombination process. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms a cyclic heterotetrameric complex composed of two CC molecules of XerC and two molecules of XerD, in which XerC interacts CC with XerD via its C-terminal region, XerD interacts with XerC via its CC C-terminal region and so on. else CC -!- FUNCTION: Site-specific tyrosine recombinase, which acts by catalyzing CC the cutting and rejoining of the recombining DNA molecules.

However, most XerD proteins contain a [ST]RQ tripeptide that allow to distinguish them from XerC proteins. Entries that are matched by MF_01808 profile but not by MF_01807 are annotated as XerC. Entries that are matched by MF_01808 and MF_01807 profiles are annotated as XerD. XX # Revision 1.31 2023/06/01 //
