cspE | RNA chaperone, negative regulator of cspA transcription; Similar to E. coli cold shock protein (AAC73724.1); Blastp hit to AAC73724.1 (69 aa), 98% identity in aa 1 - 69. (69 aa) | ||||
ompF | Outer membrane protein 1a (ia;b;f), porin; Forms pores that allow passive diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane. It is also a receptor for the bacteriophage T2 (By similarity). (363 aa) | ||||
ompA | Putative membrane component hydrogenase; With TolR probably plays a role in maintaining the position of the peptidoglycan cell wall in the periplasm. Acts as a porin with low permeability that allows slow penetration of small solutes; an internal gate slows down solute passage. (350 aa) | ||||
rne | RNase E; Endoribonuclease that plays a central role in RNA processing and decay. Required for the maturation of 5S and 16S rRNAs and the majority of tRNAs. Also involved in the degradation of most mRNAs. Belongs to the RNase E/G family. RNase E subfamily. (1067 aa) | ||||
sodB | Iron superoxide dismutase; Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems; Belongs to the iron/manganese superoxide dismutase family. (193 aa) | ||||
rnb | RNase II; Involved in mRNA degradation. Hydrolyzes single-stranded polyribonucleotides processively in the 3' to 5' direction. (644 aa) | ||||
proQ | Activator of proP; RNA chaperone with significant RNA binding, RNA strand exchange and RNA duplexing activities. May regulate ProP activity through an RNA-based, post-transcriptional mechanism. Belongs to the ProQ family. (228 aa) | ||||
uvrY | Putative LuxR/UhpA family response regulator; Similar to E. coli putative 2-component transcriptional regulator (AAC74981.1); Blastp hit to AAC74981.1 (218 aa), 96% identity in aa 1 - 218. (218 aa) | ||||
ompC | Outer membrane protein 1b (ib;c); Forms pores that allow passive diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane. (378 aa) | ||||
stpA | DNA-binding protein with chaperone activity; A DNA-binding protein that acts in a fashion similar to H-NS, repressing gene transcription. A subset of H-NS/StpA-regulated genes require auxillary proteins for repression; these auxillary proteins (Hha and other similar proteins) may also modulate oligomerization of the H-NS/StpA complex (By similarity). (133 aa) | ||||
csrA | Carbon storage regulator; A key translational regulator that binds mRNA to regulate translation initiation and/or mRNA stability. Mediates global changes in gene expression, shifting from rapid growth to stress survival by linking envelope stress, the stringent response and the catabolite repression systems. Usually binds in the 5'-UTR; binding at or near the Shine-Dalgarno sequence prevents ribosome-binding, repressing translation, binding elsewhere in the 5'-UTR can activate translation and/or stabilize the mRNA. Its function is antagonized by small RNA(s). (61 aa) | ||||
rpoS | Sigma S (sigma 38) factor of RNA polymerase; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the master transcriptional regulator of the stationary phase and the general stress response. (330 aa) | ||||
barA | Sensory histidine kinase; Similar to E. coli sensor-regulator, activates OmpR by phophorylation (AAC75828.1); Blastp hit to AAC75828.1 (918 aa), 90% identity in aa 1 - 918. (918 aa) | ||||
glnE | Adenylyl transferase for glutamine synthetase; Involved in the regulation of glutamine synthetase GlnA, a key enzyme in the process to assimilate ammonia. When cellular nitrogen levels are high, the C-terminal adenylyl transferase (AT) inactivates GlnA by covalent transfer of an adenylyl group from ATP to specific tyrosine residue of GlnA, thus reducing its activity. Conversely, when nitrogen levels are low, the N-terminal adenylyl removase (AR) activates GlnA by removing the adenylyl group by phosphorolysis, increasing its activity. The regulatory region of GlnE binds the signal trans [...] (947 aa) | ||||
sun | Putative rRNA methylase; Specifically methylates the cytosine at position 967 (m5C967) of 16S rRNA. (429 aa) | ||||
crp | Catabolite activator protein (CAP); A global transcription regulator. Complexes with cyclic AMP (cAMP) which allosterically activates DNA binding to regulate transcription. It can act as an activator, repressor, coactivator or corepressor. Induces a severe bend in DNA. Acts as a negative regulator of its own synthesis as well as for adenylate cyclase (cyaA), which generates cAMP. Plays a major role in carbon catabolite repression (CCR) (By similarity). (210 aa) | ||||
cspA | Major cold shock protein 7.4; Binds to and stimulates the transcription of the CCAAT- containing, cold-shock-inducible promoters of the H-NS and GyrA proteins. Binds also to the inverted repeat 5'-ATTGG-3' (By similarity). (70 aa) | ||||
