| UniProt functional annotation for Q38087 | |||
| UniProt code: Q38087. |
| Organism: | Escherichia phage RB69 (Bacteriophage RB69). | |
| Taxonomy: | Viruses; Duplodnaviria; Heunggongvirae; Uroviricota; Caudoviricetes; Caudovirales; Myoviridae; Tevenvirinae; Mosigvirus. | |
| Function: | Replicates the viral genomic DNA. This polymerase possesses two enzymatic activities: DNA synthesis (polymerase) and an exonucleolytic activity that degrades single-stranded DNA in the 3'- to 5'-direction for proofreading purpose. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_04100, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17098747, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18503083, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22571765, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22616982}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=a 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate + DNA(n) = diphosphate + DNA(n+1); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:22508, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:11130, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:11131, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:61560, ChEBI:CHEBI:83828; EC=2.7.7.7; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_04100, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17098747, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18503083, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20795733, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22616982, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24116139}; | |

| Subunit: | Part of the replicase complex that includes the DNA polymerase, the polymerase clamp, the clamp loader complex, the single- stranded DNA binding protein, and the primase/helicase (By similarity). Interacts with the polymerase clamp; this interaction constitutes the polymerase holoenzyme (PubMed:10535734). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_04100, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10535734}. | |
| Domain: | The N-terminus contains the 3'-5' exonuclease activity (PubMed:9215631). The C-terminus contains the polymerase activity and is involved in binding to the polymerase clamp protein (PubMed:9215631). A beta hairpin structure is necessary for the proofreading function of the polymerase (By similarity). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04100, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9215631}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-B family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04100}. | |
