Histidine kinase-, DNA gyrase B-, and HSP90-like ATPase domain protein.

Histidine kinase, putative.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Member of the two-component regulatory system NreB/NreC involved in the control of dissimilatory nitrate/nitrite reduction in response to oxygen. NreB functions as a direct oxygen sensor histidine kinase which is autophosphorylated, in the absence of oxygen, probably at the conserved histidine residue, and transfers its phosphate group probably to a conserved aspartate residue of NreC. NreB/NreC activates the expression of the nitrate (narGHJI) and nitrite (nir) reductase operons, as well as the putative nitrate transporter gene narT (By similarity).

Ribosomal large subunit pseudouridine synthase, RluD subfamily, putative.

Response regulator, putative; Member of the two-component regulatory system SaeR/SaeS involved in the regulation of staphylococcal virulence factors in a strain-dependent fashion. Probably functions as a transcriptional regulator via a specific DNA-binding domain, recognizing motifs near the promoter sequences of target genes. SaeR/SaeS activates the expression of exoproteins involved in adhesion and invasion of host cells, including hemolysins (Hla, Hlb), Coa, DNase, Spa and cell wall- associated proteins (Emp, Eap, FnbA). Acts probably downstream of the Agr system in the regulatory c [...]

pfkB family carbohydrate kinase family, putative.

Two-component response regulator, putative; Member of the two-component regulatory system WalK/WalR that regulates genes involved in cell wall metabolism, virulence regulation, biofilm production, oxidative stress resistance and antibiotic resistance via direct or indirect regulation of autolysins. Functions as a transcription regulator by direct binding to promoter regions. Positively controls the cell wall-hydrolytic activity through regulation of atlA and lytM, as well as induces transcription of isaA, sceD, ssaA, and four ssaA- related genes. Binds directly to the lytM, ssaA and is [...]

DNA-binding response regulator, putative; Member of the two-component regulatory system HssS/HssR involved in intracellular heme homeostasis and tempering of staphylococcal virulence. Phosphorylated HssR binds to a direct repeat sequence within hrtAB promoter and activates the expression of hrtAB, an efflux pump, in response to extracellular heme, hemin, hemoglobin or blood (By similarity).
