| Primary Identifier | IPR001667 | Type | Domain |
| Short Name | DDH_dom |
| description | This is a domain of predicted phosphoesterases, including Drosophila prune protein and bacterial RecJ exonuclease []. The RecJ protein of Escherichia coli plays an important role in a number of DNA repair and recombination pathways. RecJ catalyzes processive degradation of single-stranded DNA in a 5'-to-3' direction. Sequences highly related to those encoding RecJ can be found in many of the eubacterial genomes sequenced to date []. |
