S24 family peptidase
translesion error-prone DNA polymerase V autoproteolytic subunit
Members of this protein family, including UmuD and MucA, are autoproteolytic proteins, homologous to LexA, that are triggered by RecA to self-cleave under certain conditions. Two subunits of the processed form, and one UmuC/MucB-family subunit, for a function DNA polymerase that can replicate DNA across the sites of lesions. However, that replication is error-prone, so these systems are mutagenic.
