Spiegelman and collaborators [ 34 35 ] asked bacteriophage Qβ only to "go forth and replicate" in the medium containing Qβ replicase, and numerous functions were lost.
These bacterial proteins form a small family that is additionally represented in Salmonella paratyphi A, the temperate bacteriophage u136 of Lactococcus lactis (ORF252-encoded protein) and a Shiga toxin-converting phage from E. coli . Iterative profile searches initiated with CAC1936 from Clostridium acetobutylicum and its S. paratyphi A ortholog correspondingly retrieved S. cerevisiae RAD52 and its eukaryotic homologs, with borderline e-values at convergence (~0.
Rep proteins of circoviruses, nanoviruses and geminiviruses consist of two domains, specifically, a N-terminal nicking domain (with conserved motifs 1, 2 and 3) and a C-terminal SF3 helicase domain (conserved motifs A, B and C) [ 21 22 ] . Conserved sequence motifs 1-3 are characteristic of Rep proteins that utilize the rolling circle mechanism of replication employed by different groups of viruses (circoviruses, nanoviruses, geminiviruses, bacteriophage φ ×-174) [ 21 23 24 25 ] .
