recombinasas RecA
Scope note: Familia de recombinasas identificadas inicialmente en BACTERIAS. Catalizan el intercambio de cadenas del ADN conducido por el ATP en la RECOMBINACIÓN GENÉTICA. El producto de la reacción consiste en un duplex y un asa de cadena simple desplazada, que tiene la forma de la letra D, razón por la que se denomina como una estructura en asa D.

Scope note: A family of recombinases initially identified in BACTERIA. They catalyze the ATP-driven exchange of DNA strands in GENETIC RECOMBINATION. The product of the reaction consists of a duplex and a displaced single-stranded loop, which has the shape of the letter D and is therefore called a D-loop structure.
