Your Input: | |||||
| ftsW | Essential cell division gene; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell division. Belongs to the SEDS family. FtsW subfamily. (414 aa) | ||||
| murG | Undecaprenyldiphospho-muramoylpentapeptide beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the transfer of a GlcNAc subunit on undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc-pentapeptide (lipid intermediate I) to form undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc- (pentapeptide)GlcNAc (lipid intermediate II); Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 28 family. MurG subfamily. (355 aa) | ||||
| ccmA-2 | Heme exporter protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex CcmAB involved in the biogenesis of c-type cytochromes; once thought to export heme, this seems not to be the case, but its exact role is uncertain. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. CcmA exporter (TC 3.A.1.107) family. (205 aa) | ||||
| mreB | Rod shape-determining protein; Forms membrane-associated dynamic filaments that are essential for cell shape determination. Acts by regulating cell wall synthesis and cell elongation, and thus cell shape. A feedback loop between cell geometry and MreB localization may maintain elongated cell shape by targeting cell wall growth to regions of negative cell wall curvature. (347 aa) | ||||
| mreC | Rod shape-determining protein; Involved in formation and maintenance of cell shape. (350 aa) | ||||
| dacB | Similar to E. coli D-alanyl-D-alanine carboxypeptidase, fraction B; penicillin-binding protein 4 (AAC76214.1); Blastp hit to AAC76214.1 (477 aa), 93% identity in aa 1 - 477. (477 aa) | ||||
| oat | Putative acetylornithine aminotransferase; Catalyzes the aminotransferase reaction from putrescine to 2- oxoglutarate, leading to glutamate and 4-aminobutanal, which spontaneously cyclizes to form 1-pyrroline. This is the first step in one of two pathways for putrescine degradation, where putrescine is converted into 4-aminobutanoate (gamma-aminobutyrate or GABA) via 4- aminobutanal. Also functions as a cadaverine transaminase in a a L- lysine degradation pathway to succinate that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate. (429 aa) | ||||
| ygfE | Putative cytoplasmic protein; Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. (109 aa) | ||||
| recB | Exonuclease V, beta chain; A helicase/nuclease that prepares dsDNA breaks (DSB) for recombinational DNA repair. Binds to DSBs and unwinds DNA via a highly rapid and processive ATP-dependent bidirectional helicase activity. Unwinds dsDNA until it encounters a Chi (crossover hotspot instigator) sequence from the 3' direction. Cuts ssDNA a few nucleotides 3' to the Chi site. The properties and activities of the enzyme are changed at Chi. The Chi-altered holoenzyme produces a long 3'-ssDNA overhang and facilitates RecA-binding to the ssDNA for homologous DNA recombination and repair. Holoe [...] (1181 aa) | ||||
| zipA | Cell division protein involved in FtsZ ring; Essential cell division protein that stabilizes the FtsZ protofilaments by cross-linking them and that serves as a cytoplasmic membrane anchor for the Z ring. Also required for the recruitment to the septal ring of downstream cell division proteins. (328 aa) | ||||
| ccmA | ABC superfamily (membrane) heme exporter protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex CcmAB involved in the biogenesis of c-type cytochromes; once thought to export heme, this seems not to be the case, but its exact role is uncertain. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. CcmA exporter (TC 3.A.1.107) family. (205 aa) | ||||
| minC | Cell division inhibitor; Cell division inhibitor that blocks the formation of polar Z ring septums. Rapidly oscillates between the poles of the cell to destabilize FtsZ filaments that have formed before they mature into polar Z rings. Prevents FtsZ polymerization; Belongs to the MinC family. (235 aa) | ||||
| mrdB | Rod shape-determining membrane protein; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell wall elongation; Belongs to the SEDS family. MrdB/RodA subfamily. (370 aa) | ||||
| STM0613 | Putative hydrogenase protein; Similar to E. coli putative DMSO reductase anchor subunit (AAC74662.1); Blastp hit to AAC74662.1 (284 aa), 30% identity in aa 6 - 200. (255 aa) | ||||
| acnB | Aconitate hydratase 2; Involved in the catabolism of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) via the tricarboxylic acid (TCA)(acetyl degradation route) and the 2- methylcitrate cycle I (propionate degradation route). Catalyzes the reversible isomerization of citrate to isocitrate via cis-aconitate. Also catalyzes the hydration of 2-methyl-cis-aconitate to yield (2R,3S)-2-methylisocitrate. The apo form of AcnB functions as a RNA- binding regulatory protein which regulates FliC synthesis via interaction with the ftsH transcript to decrease the intracellular levels of FtsH. The lower levels of Fts [...] (865 aa) | ||||
| ftsZ | Tubulin-like GTP-binding protein and GTPase; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity. (383 aa) | ||||
| ftsA | ATP-binding cell division protein; Cell division protein that is involved in the assembly of the Z ring. May serve as a membrane anchor for the Z ring. Belongs to the FtsA/MreB family. (420 aa) | ||||
