The Escherichia coli ruvC gene is involved in DNA repair and recombination and encodes an endonuclease that resolves Holliday structure in vitro. The 2.8-kb chromosomal DNA fragment that encompasses the ruvC gene and its flanking regions was cloned and sequenced. Four open reading frames were identified in the order orf17-orf26-ruvC-orf23 immediately upstream of the ruvAB operon, and their orientations are the same as the ruvAB operon, except for orf23. Proteins encoded by orf17, orf26, and ruvC ...[more]
