DNA polymerase III subunit beta; Confers DNA tethering and processivity to DNA polymerases and other proteins. Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP- independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase III (Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity. The beta chain is required for initiation of [...]

DNA polymerase III subunit delta; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

DNA polymerase III; Catalyzes DNA-template-directed extension of the 3'-end of a DNA strand by one nucleotide at a time. Proposed to be responsible for the synthesis of the lagging strand. In the low GC gram positive bacteria this enzyme is less processive and more error prone than its counterpart in other bacteria; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

Thymidylate kinase; Phosphorylation of dTMP to form dTDP in both de novo and salvage pathways of dTTP synthesis; Belongs to the thymidylate kinase family.

Signal peptidase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

Recombinase; May play a role in DNA repair. It seems to be involved in an RecBC-independent recombinational process of DNA repair. It may act with RecF and RecO.

DNA polymerase I; In addition to polymerase activity, this DNA polymerase exhibits 5'-3' exonuclease activity.

Nucleoid-associated protein; Binds to DNA and alters its conformation. May be involved in regulation of gene expression, nucleoid organization and DNA protection.

Initiation-control protein; Involved in initiation control of chromosome replication. Belongs to the YabA family.
