site-specific telomere resolvase activity

id: GO:0043336
name: site-specific telomere resolvase activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Catalysis of a site-specific breakage and reunion reaction that generates two hairpin telomeres from a replicated telomere substrate. Occurs via a two-step transesterification with a protein-DNA intermediate similar to that used by topoisomerases and site-specific recombinases.
