| Short Name | AidB |
| description | AidB is one of several genes involved in the SOS adaptive response to DNA alkylation damage, whose expression is activated by the Ada protein [, ]. Its function has not been entirely elucidated; however, it is similar in sequence and function to acyl-CoA dehydrogenases [, ]. It has been proposed that aidB directly destroys DNA alkylating agents such as nitrosoguanidines (nitrosated amides) or their reaction intermediates [, ]. |
