General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | UmuD is a dynamic protein that regulates mutagenesis. The UmuD gene products, regulated by the SOS response, exist in two principal forms: UmuD2, which prevents mutagenesis, and UmuD2, which facilitates UV-induced mutagenesis. UmuD slows the resumption of DNA replication after UV irradiation. UmuD interacts with DinB and inhibits its mutagenic -1 frameshift activity. UmuD2 interacts with the RecA/ssDNA filament, which stimulates the ability of UmuD to cleave itself | Escherichia coli |
