CC -!- FUNCTION: Part of the relaxosome complex that is responsible for
CC plasmid transfer during conjugation. Locally unwinds DNA and catalyzes
CC the cleavage of one of the DNA strands at oriT. The cleaved strand is
CC then transferred through the dedicated type IV secretion apparatus.
CC MobA remains covalently linked at the 5' end of the strand, and once in
CC the recipient cell, it probably catalyzes the rejoining of the two ends
CC of the strand, re-forming the circular plasmid DNA. The primase
CC activity of MobA is essential for the synthesis of primers that will
CC initiate the DNA replication events necessary to form the double-
CC stranded plasmid in the recipient cell. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1738602,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8955311}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=ATP-independent breakage of single-stranded DNA, followed by
CC passage and rejoining.; EC=5.6.2.1;
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=ssDNA + n NTP = ssDNA/pppN(pN)n-1 hybrid + (n-1) diphosphate.;

CC Mn(2+), Ca(2+) or Ba(2+). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1738602,
