conveys incoming ssDNA to [protein|A44D4677FB70BE8F554BF1001A500F817C7DA95F|RecA]; facilitates the displacement of both SSBs ([protein|1CDF658441061EA476E27C2E60DEE45C4F45AC15|SsbB] and [protein|8DE39680CA7663803A107066FBE9AFFCC77DB72A|SsbA]), increases [protein|A44D4677FB70BE8F554BF1001A500F817C7DA95F|RecA] nucleation onto SSB-coated ssDNA, and mediates DNA strand annealing, required to internalize and to recombine ssDNA with homologous resident duplex
