UvrABC complex

The UvrABC complex is a group of proteins in bacteria that work together to repair damaged DNA. When DNA is damaged by ultraviolet light or other factors, the UvrABC proteins detect the damage, cut out the broken section, and help replace it with correct genetic information. This process, called nucleotide excision repair, is crucial for maintaining genetic stability and preventing harmful mutations. The complex ensures that the DNA stays accurate, allowing the bacteria to survive and function properly despite environmental stresses.
