Name Class

GO:1990097NameSeqA-DNA complex
DefinitionA protein-DNA complex that contains an oligomer of SeqA bound to GATC sites in methylated or newly-synthesized, hemi-methylated double-stranded DNA, with preference for the latter. Binding of SeqA to hemimethylated DNA sequesters oriC, prevents re-methylation of DNA by Dam and in turn stops premature re-initiation of replication during one replication cycle.
SynonymNarrowSeqA-dsDNA complex
SeqA-hemimethylated DNA complex
SeqA-hemimethylation dsDNA complex
