DE RecName: Full=LexA repressor {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}; DE EC=3.4.21.88 {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}; GN Name=lexA {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}; OrderedLocusNames=Pden_2142; OS Paracoccus denitrificans (strain Pd 1222). OC Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Alphaproteobacteria; Rhodobacterales; OC Rhodobacteraceae; Paracoccus. OX NCBI_TaxID=318586; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [LARGE SCALE GENOMIC DNA]. RC STRAIN=Pd 1222; RA Copeland A., Lucas S., Lapidus A., Barry K., Detter J.C., RA Glavina del Rio T., Hammon N., Israni S., Dalin E., Tice H., Pitluck S., RA Munk A.C., Brettin T., Bruce D., Han C., Tapia R., Gilna P., Schmutz J., RA Larimer F., Land M., Hauser L., Kyrpides N., Lykidis A., Spiro S., RA Richardson D.J., Moir J.W.B., Ferguson S.J., van Spanning R.J.M., RA Richardson P.; RT "Complete sequence of chromosome 1 of Paracoccus denitrificans PD1222."; RL Submitted (DEC-2006) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases. CC -!- FUNCTION: Represses a number of genes involved in the response to DNA CC damage (SOS response), including recA and lexA. In the presence of CC single-stranded DNA, RecA interacts with LexA causing an autocatalytic CC cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of LexA, leading to CC derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair. CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=Hydrolysis of Ala-|-Gly bond in repressor LexA.; EC=3.4.21.88; CC Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}; CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase S24 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_00015}.
