FunctionFunction
[ADDA_BACSU] An essential component of the DNA double-stranded break repair machinery, the heterodimer acts as both an ATP-dependent DNA helicase and an ATP-dependent, dual-direction single-stranded exonuclease. Recognizes the B.subtilis chi site (5'-AGCGG-3') which transforms the enzyme from a helicase which degrades both DNA strands to one with only 5' -> 3' exonuclease activity. This generates a double-stranded DNA with a protruding 3'-terminated single-stranded tail suitable for the initiation of homologous recombination (chi fragment). The AddA nuclease domain in particular is required for chi fragment generation; this subunit has 3' -> 5' nuclease and helicase activity. RecA thread formation during DNA double-strand break repair requires RecJ or AddAB.[1] [2] [3] [ADDB_BACSU] The heterodimer acts as both an ATP-dependent DNA helicase and an ATP-dependent single-stranded exonuclease, acting in both directions.

The AddB nuclease domain is not required for chi fragment generation; this subunit has 5' -> 3' nuclease activity.
