Unknown protein; Rv0272c, (MTCY06A4.16c), len: 377 aa. Unknown protein.

Two component sensor histidine kinase DosT; Interacts with the two-component regulatory system DevR/DevS (DosR/DosS) involved in onset of the dormancy response. Required for full induction of the DevR (DosR) regulon; required during early adaptation to anaerobiosis, to start induction of the DevR regulon. May act as a direct hypoxia/oxygen sensor. O(2) acts as a switch, with the Fe(2+)-O(2)-bound protein inactive in autophosphorylation. Autophosphorylates under anaerobic but not aerobic conditions, binding of NO or CO has no effect on autophosphorylation. Binds a number of gases; O(2), [...]
