Escherichia coli DNA ligase B may mitigate damage from oxidative stress.

Escherichia coli DNA ligase B may mitigate damage from oxidative stress.

Escherichia coli encodes two DNA ligases, ligase A, which is essential under normal laboratory growth conditions, and ligase B, which is not. Here we report potential functions of ligase B. We found that across the entire Enterobacteriaceae family, ligase B is highly conserved in both amino acid ide...
