Protein Family Models

This family consists of several hypothetical bacterial proteins of around 180 residues in length which are often known as YaeQ. YaeQ is homologous to RfaH, a specialised transcription elongation protein. YaeQ is known to compensate for loss of RfaH function [1]. [1]. 9604894.

YaeQ family protein adopts a fold built around a variation of the PD-(D/E)XK nuclease motif found in type II endonucleases and enzymes involved in DNA replication, repair, and recombination; may bind nucleic acids
