| PF21241 | DNA helicase UvsW, N-terminal | domain |
This is the small N-terminal alpha+beta domain of the DNA helicase UvsW from bacteriophage T4 [1,2], which consists of five beta-strands and two alpha-helices. This domain is structurally homologous to the DNA-binding domain of the T4 transcription factor MotA, thus, it likely binds the nucleic acid substrate [1,2].
