UniProt functional annotation for A0R3C5

UniProt code: A0R3C5.

Organism: Mycolicibacterium smegmatis (strain ATCC 700084 / mc(2)155) (Mycobacterium smegmatis).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Corynebacteriales; Mycobacteriaceae; Mycolicibacterium.
 
Function: Couples transcription and DNA repair by recognizing RNA polymerase (RNAP) stalled at DNA lesions. Mediates ATP-dependent release of RNAP and its truncated transcript from the DNA, and recruitment of nucleotide excision repair machinery to the damaged site. {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00969}.
