recU (Holliday junction resolvase RecU)
Loading...
ORGANISM
Streptococcus pyogenes serotype M12 (strain MGAS9429)
FAMILY
Also known as RECU_STRPC, recU. Endonuclease 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.
