PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • from the N terminus,five highly conserved motifs, I, II, III likely involved in DNA binding and nucleotidyltransferase activities, IV and V representing the helix-hairpin-helix motif
  • two zinc finger domains of C2H2 type in the C terminal region
    • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to E.coli Din B
    intraspecies homolog to RAD30 related
    Homologene
