Regulation of UmuD cleavage: role of the amino-terminal tail.

Journal of molecular biology - 2 Oct 1998

McDonald J P, Maury E E, Levine A S, Woodgate R

Abstract excerpt

An essential step in SOS mutagenesis is the RecA-mediated posttranslational processing of UmuD-like proteins to the shorter, but mutagenically active, UmuD'-like proteins. Interestingly, the UmuD-like proteins undergo posttranslational processing at different rates. For example, although the Escherichia coli UmuD (UmuDEc) and the Salmonella typhimurium UmuD (UmuDSt) proteins are 73% identical, UmuDSt is processed...
