Function
function
Catalyzes both the 5'-exonucleolytic and structure-specific endonucleolytic hydrolysis of DNA branched nucleic acid molecules and probably plays a role in viral genome replication. Active on flap (branched duplex DNA containing a free single-stranded 5'-end), 5'overhangs and pseudo-Y structures. The substrates require a free, single-stranded 5' end, with endonucleolytic hydrolysis occurring at the junction of double- and single-stranded DNA. This function may be used for example to trim such branched molecules generated by Okazaki fragments synthesis during replication.
Catalytic activity
Cofactor
K+ (UniProtKB | Rhea| CHEBI:29103 )
Note: Binds divalent metal cations, probably Mg2+. In vitro low metal concentrations selectively stimulate the endonuclease reaction. Endonuclease activity is suggested to require only the first cation, whereas exonuclease activity is suggested to require binding of both. High pH favors the exonuclase activity whereas low pH favors the endonuclease activity. Metal ions enhance substrate binding. K+ is bound to the H3TH region.
