D-alanine:D-alanyl-carrier protein ligase; Catalyzes the first step in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA), the activation of D-alanine and its transfer onto the D- alanyl carrier protein (Dcp) DltC. In an ATP-dependent two-step reaction, forms a high energy D-alanyl-AMP intermediate, followed by transfer of the D-alanyl residue as a thiol ester to the phosphopantheinyl prosthetic group of the Dcp. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall. Belongs to the ATP [...]

Putative membrane phosphatase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.

Putative D-alanine esterase for lipoteichoic acid and wall teichoic acid; Involved in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA). Could be involved in the transport of activated D-alanine through the membrane. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall.

Putative D-alanine esterase for lipoteichoic acid and wall teichoic acid synthesis; Involved in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA). Could be responsible for the transfer of DltC-carried D-alanyl groups to cell membrane phosphatidylglycerol (PG), or alternatively of D- alanine residues from D-Ala-undecaprenol phosphate to the poly(glycerophosphate) chains of LTA. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram- positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall.

RNA polymerase ECF(extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor (sigma(V)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Positively regulates the expression of proteins involved in stress responses against bacitracin, paraquat and tellurite. Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. ECF subfamily.

RNA polymerase ECF(extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor sigma(X); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. May be involved in the regulation of iron metabolism; Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. ECF subfamily.

Multifunctional SOS repair factor; Multifunctional protein involved in homologous recombination, DNA repair and competence. Can catalyze the hydrolysis of (d)ATP in the presence of single-stranded DNA; prefers dATP at least in vitro, catalyzes the dATP-dependent uptake of single- stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the dATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs (strand exchange). RecA-ATP cannot catalyze homologous DNA strand exchange; SsbA and DprA activate strand exchange by RecA-ATP. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic clea [...]

Competence-damage inducible regulator; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; regulator; Belongs to the CinA family.

D-alanyl carrier protein; Carrier protein involved in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA). The loading of thioester-linked D-alanine onto DltC is catalyzed by D-alanine--D-alanyl carrier protein ligase DltA. The DltC- carried D-alanyl group is further transferred to cell membrane phosphatidylglycerol (PG) by forming an ester bond, probably catalyzed by DltD. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall.
