Function

UvrABC endonuclease is an E. coli enzyme complex involved in DNA repair. UvrABC removes 12 nucleotides around a DNA mutation replacing them with the correct one[1]. For details on the UvrA-UvrB complex see UvrA-UvrB interaction domains.

Structural highlights

UvrA contains several domains: UvrB-binding, DNA-binding and two ATP-binding domains[2].
