Protein: Single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB protein) (Gp32) (Helix-destabilizing protein) (P03695)
Organism: Enterobacteria phage T4 (Bacteriophage T4)
Function: Single-stranded DNA-binding protein that participates in viral DNA replication, recombination, and repair (Probable). Coats the lagging-strand ssDNA as the replication fork advances. Stimulates the activities of viral DNA polymerase and DnaB-like SF4 replicative helicase, probably via its interaction with the helicase assembly factor. Together with DnaB-like SF4 replicative helicase and the helicase assembly factor, promotes pairing of two homologous DNA molecules containing complementary single-stranded regions and mediates homologous DNA strand exchange. Promotes also the formation of joint molecules. mRNA specific autogenous translational repressor.
