Conserved protein; Binds to DNA and alters its conformation. May be involved in regulation of gene expression, nucleoid organization and DNA protection.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Cell-wall hydrolase that hydrolyzes the amide bond between N- acetylmuramic acid and L-alanine in cell-wall glycopeptides. Is able to hydrolyze the cell walls of several bacterial species (i.e. Paenibacillus sp., B.avium, E.coli DH5alpha, E.aerogenes, L.acidophilus, B.thuringiensis, B.pumilus, B.subtilis and E.coli W3110), thereby showing that it is a cell-wall hydrolase with broad-spectrum activity. May have a role in peptidoglycan fragment recycling. Belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 3 family.

DNA replication and repair protein RecF (single-strand DNA binding protein); The RecF protein is involved in DNA metabolism; it is required for DNA replication and normal SOS inducibility. RecF binds preferentially to single-stranded, linear DNA. It also seems to bind ATP (By similarity).

Probable holliday junction DNA helicase RuvB; The RuvA-RuvB complex in the presence of ATP renatures cruciform structure in supercoiled DNA with palindromic sequence, indicating that it may promote strand exchange reactions in homologous recombination. RuvAB is a helicase that mediates the Holliday junction migration by localized denaturation and reannealing.

RecA protein (recombinase A) [contains: endonuclease PI-MTUI (MTU RecA intein)]; Can catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of single- stranded DNA, the ATP-dependent uptake of single-stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the ATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic cleavage.

ESX-1 secretion-associated protein EspL; Probably plays a role in host phagosome maturation arrest.

Probable excinuclease ABC (subunit C-nuclease) UvrC; The UvrABC repair system catalyzes the recognition and processing of DNA lesions. UvrC both incises the 5' and 3' sides of the lesion. The N-terminal half is responsible for the 3' incision and the C-terminal half is responsible for the 5' incision.

Probable ATP-dependent DNA helicase II UvrD1; DNA-dependent ATPase, acting on dsDNA with a 3'-ssDNA tail, unwinding with 3'-to 5'-polarity. A minimal tail of 18 nt is required for activity. Also highly efficient on nicked DNA. Involved in the post-incision events of nucleotide excision repair, as well as in nitrosative and oxidative stress response and possibly in persistence in the host. Inhibits RecA-mediated DNA strand exchange; this does not require ATPase activity. When combined with UvrA greatly inhibits RecA- mediated DNA strand exchange; Belongs to the helicase family. UvrD sub [...]

Probable DNA repair protein RecN (recombination protein N); May be involved in recombinational repair of damaged DNA.
