| Type: | Family | Name: | dsDNA mimic, putative |
| Description: | This entry represents hypothetical proteins such as HI1450, which is believed to act as a putative dsDNA mimic. HI1450 is an acidic protein with a core structure consisting of alpha(2)-beta(4), where the alpha-helices are packed against the side of an anti-parallel 4-stranded beta meander. As such, it has some similarity to the dsDNA mimics uracil-DNA glycosylase inhibitor and nuclease A inhibitor (NuiA), including the distribution of surface charges and the position of the hydrophobic cavity []. DNA mimics act to inhibit or regulate dsDNA-binding proteins. | Short Name: | dsDNA_mimic_put |
