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}.
