Protein
Recombination protein RecR
Organism
Streptococcus pneumoniae (strain ATCC BAA-255 / R6)
Function
May play a role in DNA repair. It seems to be involved in an RecBC-independent recombinational process of DNA repair. It may act with RecF and RecO (By similarity). Plays no role in chromosomal or plasmid transformation but is required for resolution of chromosome dimers occurring as intermediates in the formation of merodiploids by transformation (PubMed:25569614).
Similarity
Belongs to the RecR family.
