ddrB

Gene
ddrB
Protein
Single-stranded DNA-binding protein DdrB
Organism
Deinococcus radiodurans (strain ATCC 13939 / DSM 20539 / JCM 16871 / LMG 4051 / NBRC 15346 / NCIMB 9279 / R1 / VKM B-1422)
Length
188 amino acids
Function
ssDNA-binding protein that contributes to the ionizing radiation resistance of D.radiodurans. Plays a role in DNA repair and genome reconstitution in a RecA-independent process. Required for recovery from severe genomic fragmentation as a result of exposure to severe levels of ionizing radiation. Binds ssDNA but not dsDNA. Stimulates annealing of complementary ssDNA. Does not complement an ssb disruption.

Protein
Single-stranded DNA-binding protein DdrB
Organism
Deinococcus geothermalis (strain DSM 11300)
Length
178 amino acids
Function
ssDNA-binding protein that probably contributes to the ionizing radiation resistance of D.geothermalis. Plays a role in DNA repair and genome reconstitution, in a RecA-independent process, and is necessary for recovery from severe genomic fragmentation as a result of exposure to severe levels of ionizing radiation (Probable). Binds single-stranded DNA but not duplex DNA.
