Excinuclease ABC, C subunit; The UvrABC repair system catalyzes the recognition and processing of DNA lesions. UvrC both incises the 5' and 3' sides of the lesion. The N-terminal half is responsible for the 3' incision and the C-terminal half is responsible for the 5' incision.

TIGRFAM: ATP-dependent DNA helicase RecQ; ATP-dependent DNA helicase, RecQ family; PFAM: RQC domain; DEAD/DEAH box helicase domain protein; helicase domain protein; HRDC domain protein; KEGG: mbu:Mbur_0061 ATP-dependent DNA helicase RecQ; SMART: DEAD-like helicase; helicase domain protein; HRDC domain protein.

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen PcnA; Sliding clamp subunit that acts as a moving platform for DNA processing. Responsible for tethering the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase and other proteins to DNA during high-speed replication.

DNA mismatch repair protein MutL; This protein is involved in the repair of mismatches in DNA. It is required for dam-dependent methyl-directed DNA mismatch repair. May act as a 'molecular matchmaker', a protein that promotes the formation of a stable complex between two or more DNA-binding proteins in an ATP-dependent manner without itself being part of a final effector complex.

DNA repair and recombination protein RadB; Involved in DNA repair and in homologous recombination. May regulate the cleavage reactions of the branch-structured DNA. Has a very weak ATPase activity that is not stimulated by DNA. Binds DNA but does not promote DNA strands exchange.

DNA repair and recombination protein RadA; Involved in DNA repair and in homologous recombination. Binds and assemble on single-stranded DNA to form a nucleoprotein filament. Hydrolyzes ATP in a ssDNA-dependent manner and promotes DNA strand exchange between homologous DNA molecules.

Excinuclease ABC, A subunit; 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.

Metallophosphoesterase; Part of the Rad50/Mre11 complex, which is involved in the early steps of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. The complex may facilitate opening of the processed DNA ends to aid in the recruitment of HerA and NurA. Mre11 binds to DSB ends and has both double-stranded 3'-5' exonuclease activity and single-stranded endonuclease activity. Belongs to the MRE11/RAD32 family.
