CC -!- FUNCTION: Represses a number of genes involved in the response to DNA
CC damage (SOS response), including recA and lexA. In the presence of
CC single-stranded DNA, RecA interacts with LexA causing an autocatalytic
CC cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of LexA, leading to
CC derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=Hydrolysis of Ala-|-Gly bond in repressor LexA.; EC=3.4.21.88;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00015}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase S24 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_00015}.
