DdiA, an XRE family transcriptional regulator, is a co-regulator of the DNA damage response in Myxococcus xanthus

ABSTRACT Repair of DNA damage is essential for genome integrity. DNA damage elicits a DNA damage response (DDR) that includes error-free and error-prone, i.e., mutagenic, repair. The SOS response is a widely conserved system in bacteria that regulates the DDR and depends on the recombinase RecA and...
