Identification
Name:Tyrosine recombinase XerC
Synonyms:Not Available
Gene Name:xerC
Enzyme Class:Not Available
Biological Properties
General Function:transposition, DNA-mediated
Specific Function:Site-specific tyrosine recombinase, which acts by catalyzing the cutting and rejoining of the recombining DNA molecules. Binds cooperatively to specific DNA consensus sequences that are separated from XerD binding sites by a short central region, forming the heterotetrameric XerC-XerD complex that recombines DNA substrates. The complex is essential to convert dimers of the bacterial chromosome into monomers to permit their segregation at cell division. It also contributes to the segregational stability of plasmids at ColE1 xer (or cer) and pSC101 (or psi) sites. In the complex XerC specifically exchanges the top DNA strands (By similarity).
