Protein Domain : Bacteriophage KVP40, Orf299 IPR007405

Type  Family
Description  This entry is represented by Bacteriophage KVP40, Orf299. The characteristics of the protein distribution suggest prophage matches in addition to the phage matches.This is a family of uncharacterised, mainly bacterial, proteins. While the functions of these proteins are unknown, an analysis has suggested that they may form a novel family within the RNASE H-like superfamily [ ]. These proteins appear to contain all the core secondary structural elements of the RNase H-like fold and share several conserved, possible active site, residues. It was suggested, therefore, that they function as nucleases. From the taxonomic distibution of these proteins it was further inferred that they may play a role in DNA repair under stressful conditions.
