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