Protein: LexA repressor (EC 3.4.21.88) (Q9PH24)
Organism: Xylella fastidiosa (strain 9a5c)
Function: Represses a number of genes involved in the response to DNA damage (SOS response), including recA and lexA. In the presence of single-stranded DNA, RecA interacts with LexA causing an autocatalytic cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of LexA, leading to derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair.
