Phenotypes of a mutant
in an ''mfd'' knock-out, the cell's ability to accumulate adaptive mutations in stationary phase is depressed [http://www.pubmed.com/16950921 PubMed]
strongly reduced stationary phase mutagenesis [Pubmed|27399782]
reduced formation of [gene|F1969E4C7BAAF70BCBE570F58350C12A3E417539|rpsB] or [gene|144D952B05EBBFF41EC92DF906543EA00475FE69|rpsE] suppressor mutants after mitomycin treatment [pubmed|34339280]
increased UV-induced mutagenesis via [protein|C87D33852F263A553CA747608E6200E4AD8344B5|polY1]/ [protein|F0BC150F59730E64BA9AB3F979544EF6B5CC4E9E|polY2]-mediated translesion synthesis [Pubmed|24118570]
the mutation suppresses the mucoid phenotype of ''[gene|86C729C7D5ABEE519ADC4A893940600BBB655EF1|motA]'' or ''[gene|FE56753D061344B0F10A6523F49C5C7356AA40B6|motB]'' mutants [Pubmed|24296669]
sensitive to blue light-induced DNA damage [pubmed|30054368]
sensitive to oxidative stress [pubmed|30691388]
suppression of lethality of [gene|C73E52D214E24F21696973B19B0A44CE785D6FBA|pcrA] inactivation [pubmed|32793628]
The protein
Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity
promotes strand-specific DNA repair by displacing [wiki|RNA polymerase] stalled at a nucleotide lesion and directing the (A)BC excinuclease to RNA damage site
is required for roadblock transcription repression by transcription factors with binding sites downstream of the promoter (as for [protein|E39AFEB7B7F28969A35C4B51CC6E7819F71C79D9|ccpA] [Pubmed|9535092] and [protein|90ACE0DECA58D3C1A55E135120F7A0C1C920571C|codY] [Pubmed|21699902])
required for the processing of genetic damage during [wiki|sporulation] [Pubmed|24118570]
required for repair of DNA lesions during growth [pubmed|32041798]
promotes error-prone DNA repair during stress to promote genetic diversity [pubmed|32041798]
couples transcription to nucleotide excision repair (NER) to eliminate DNA distorting lesions during sporulation [pubmed|33510358]
