The protein
Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity
has inherent polymerization and ligase activities that allow it to fill the short gaps that can arise after realignment of the broken ends and to seal the resulting nicks, contributing to genome stability during the stationary phase and germination
has an intrinsic 5'-2-deoxyribose-5-phosphate (dRP) lyase activity located at the N-terminal ligase domain [Pubmed|26826709]
ATP + (deoxyribonucleotide)(n)-3'-hydroxyl + 5'-phospho-(deoxyribonucleotide)(m) --> (deoxyribonucleotide)(n+m) + AMP + diphosphate (according to UniProt)
Protein family
N-terminal part: LigD polymerase family (single member, according to UniProt)
C-terminal part: ATP-dependent DNA ligase family (with [protein|B66132676788FBA47D375193A1C01FC6F93E110F|ligB], according to UniProt)
[wiki|Domains]
