ATP-dependent RNA helicase; DEAD-box RNA helicase that plays a role in 70S ribosome assembly. May work in conjunction with the cold shock proteins to ensure proper initiation of transcription at low and optimal temperatures.

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme.

formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosidase; Involved in the GO system responsible for removing an oxidatively damaged form of guanine (7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine, 8-oxo- dGTP) from DNA and the nucleotide pool. 8-oxo-dGTP is inserted opposite dA and dC residues of template DNA with almost equal efficiency thus leading to A.T to G.C transversions (By similarity). Involved in base excision repair of DNA damaged by oxidation or by mutagenic agents. Acts as DNA glycosylase that recognizes and removes damaged bases. Has a preference for oxidized purines, such as 8-oxo-dGTP. Has AP (apurinic/apyrimidi [...]

uracil-DNA glycosylase; Excises uracil residues from the DNA which can arise as a result of misincorporation of dUMP residues by DNA polymerase or due to deamination of cytosine; Belongs to the uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) superfamily. UNG family.

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

A/G-specific adenine glycosylase or DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase; Base excision repair (BER) glycosylase that initiates repair of A:oxoG to C:G by removing the inappropriately paired adenine base from the DNA backbone, generating an abasic site product. 8-oxoguanine (oxoG) is a genotoxic DNA lesion resulting from oxidation of guanine; this residue is misread by replicative DNA polymerases, that insert adenine instead of cytosine opposite the oxidized damaged base. Shows a powerful dicrimination of A versus C, since it does not cleave cytosine in oxoG:C pairs. May also be a [...]

DNA polymerase/3'-5' exonuclease X; Strictly DNA-template-directed DNA polymerase, preferentially acting on DNA structures containing gaps from one to a few nucleotides and bearing a phosphate group at the 5' end of the downstream DNA. The fact that PolX is able to conduct filling of a single-nucleotide gap, allowing further sealing of the resulting nick by a DNA ligase, points to a putative role in base excision repair (BER) during the B.subtilis life cycle. Moreover, also possesses a 3'-5' exonuclease activity able to edit unpaired 3'-termini in a gapped DNA substrate and likely invo [...]

Excinuclease ABC (subunit A); The UvrABC repair system catalyzes the recognition and processing of DNA lesions. UvrA is an ATPase and a DNA-binding protein. A damage recognition complex composed of 2 UvrA and 2 UvrB subunits scans DNA for abnormalities. When the presence of a lesion has been verified by UvrB, the UvrA molecules dissociate.
