| UniProt functional annotation for Q56313 | |||
| UniProt code: Q56313. |
| Organism: | Thermotoga maritima (strain ATCC 43589 / DSM 3109 / JCM 10099 / NBRC 100826 / MSB8). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Thermotogae; Thermotogales; Thermotogaceae; Thermotoga. | |
| Function: | The RuvA-RuvB complex in the presence of ATP renatures cruciform structure in supercoiled DNA with palindromic sequence, indicating that it may promote strand exchange reactions in homologous recombination. RuvAB is a helicase that mediates the Holliday junction migration by localized denaturation and reannealing. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00016}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=ATP + H2O = ADP + H(+) + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:13065, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=3.6.4.12; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00016}; | |
| Subunit: | Forms a complex with RuvA. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the RuvB family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_00016}. | |
