Protein Domain : IPR003365

Type:  Domain Name:  Viral replication-associated protein, N-terminal
Description:  Proteins in this entry are essential for the replication of viral ssDNA. The closed circular ssDNA genome is first converted to a superhelical dsDNA. Rep and/or Rep' binds a specific hairpin at the genome origin of replication introducing an endonucleolytic nick within the conserved sequence 5'-AGTATTAC-3'. This initiates rolling circle replication (RCR). Following cleavage, the protein binds covalently to the 5'-phosphate of DNA as a tyrosyl ester. The cleavage gives rise to a free 3'-OH that serves as a primer for the cellular DNA polymerase. The polymerase synthesizes the (+) strand DNA by rolling circle mechanism. After one round of replication, a Rep-catalyzed nucleotidyl transfer reaction releases a circular single-stranded virus genome, thereby terminating the replication. Short Name:  Viral_rep_N
