ydeIHydrogen peroxide resistance OB fold protein; putative periplasmic protein. (130 aa)
mgrBRegulatory peptide for PhoPQ, feedback inhibition; Represses PhoP/PhoQ signaling, possibly by binding to the periplasmic domain of PhoQ, altering its activity and that of downstream effector PhoP. PhoP-regulated transcription is redox- sensitive, being activated when the periplasm becomes more reducing (deletion of dsbA/dsbB, treatment with dithiothreitol). MgrB acts between DsbA/DsbB and PhoP/PhoQ in this pathway; the 2 periplasmic Cys residues of MgrB are required for its action on PhoQ, and thus PhoP. (47 aa)
lpxMMyristoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP)-dependent acyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of myristate from myristoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) to Kdo(2)-(lauroyl)-lipid IV(A) to form Kdo(2)- lipid A. Can probably also catalyze the transfer of myristate to Kdo(2)-(palmitoleoyl)-lipid IV(A) to form the cold-adapted Kdo(2)-lipid A. In vitro, can acylate Kdo(2)-lipid IV(A), but acylation of (KDO)2- (lauroyl)-lipid IV(A) is about 100 times faster. In vitro, can use lauroyl-ACP but displays a slight kinetic preference for myristoyl-ACP. (323 aa)

rpoNRNA polymerase, sigma 54 (sigma N) factor; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is responsible for the expression of enzymes involved in arginine catabolism. The open complex (sigma-54 and core RNA polymerase) serves as the receptor for the receipt of the melting signal from the remotely bound activator protein GlnG(NtrC). (477 aa)
rpsD30S ribosomal subunit protein S4; One of two assembly initiator proteins for the 30S subunit, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit.
