ATP-binding protein Uup

UniProtKB accession:  P43672

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Probably plays a role in ribosome assembly or function; overexpression suppresses cold-sensitive growth of a bipA deletion (Ref.10) (Probable). May be involved in resolution of branched DNA intermediates that result from template switching in postreplication gaps. Binds DNA at Holliday junctions. May be involved in the correct segregation of nucleoids (PubMed:31665437). Has ATPase activity, binds DNA non-sequence specifically; the presence of DNA does not change the ATPase activity (PubMed:16407313). Mutations in this gene cause an increase in RecA-independent precise excision of transposons and insertion elements, and also reduce bacteriophage Mu growth (PubMed:6294054, PubMed:16407313, PubMed:19948254).
