    -  Synonyms Regulatory protein of adaptative response  
    -  Gene name Name=ada; OrderedLocusNames=b2213;  
    -  Comments
  • FUNCTION:Repair of alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction:the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated. Can also repair O-4-methylthymine.
  • FUNCTION:The methylated ADA protein acts as a positive regulator of its own synthesis, as well as that of other proteins. The transcription-activating function of the ADA protein resides in its N-terminus. It activates the transcription of alkA, alkB and aidB.
  • CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:DNA (containing 6-O-methylguanine) + protein L-cysteine = DNA (without 6-O-methylguanine) + protein S-methyl-L-cysteine.
  • COFACTOR:One zinc ion per subunit.
  • SIMILARITY:The regulatory part belongs to the araC/xylS family of transcriptional regulators.
  • SIMILARITY:In the C-terminal section; belongs to the MGMT family.
