AbstractHelp

This is the DNA binding domain of the LexA SOS regulon repressor which prevents expression of DNA repair proteins in bacteria. The aligned region contains a variant form of the helix-turn-helix DNA binding motif [1]. This domain usually at the N terminus is found associated with IPR006198 the auto-proteolytic domain of LexA EC:3.4.21.88.
