Comments [?]

FUNCTIONEndonuclease that resolves Holliday junction intermediates in genetic recombination. Cleaves mobile four-strand junctions by introducing symmetrical nicks in paired strands. Promotes annealing of linear ssDNA with homologous dsDNA. Required for DNA repair, homologous recombination and chromosome segregation.
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;
COFACTOR Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Note=Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion per subunit.;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the RecU family.
