Conserved hypothetical protein; Part of the pathway by which MgrA and SarA control autolysis. Involved in regulation of virulence and autolysis genes such as hla, splA, aur, scp, lrgB, scdA and atl. May also act as an activator for the expression of regulatory genes agr, lytSR and ArlRS.

Catabolite control protein A.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Involved in the regulation of virulence genes. Acts as a repressor of the agr locus and consequently targets genes regulated by the agr system such as sspA, hla and hlb. Binds directly to the agr promoter region.

Staphylococcal accessory regulator T, putative; Global regulator with both positive and negative effects that controls expression of several virulence factors and biofilm formation process in a cell density-dependent manner. In a strain-dependent manner plays a role in multidrug resistance mechanism. Is required for transcription of primary transcripts RNAII and RNAIII generated by agr (virulence accessory gene regulator) locus. Acts as a transcriptional activator of the genes encoding, among others, for fibronectin binding proteins (fnbA and fnbB), hemolysins (hla, hld, hlgB and hlgC) [...]

Conserved hypothetical protein; Interferes with activator-stimulated transcription by interaction with the RNA polymerase alpha-CTD. May function to globally reduce transcription of genes involved in growth- and development- promoting processes and to increase transcription of genes involved in thiol homeostasis, during periods of extreme stress. Belongs to the ArsC family. Spx subfamily.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Positive regulator of RNAII and RNAIII in a cell density- dependent manner. It can contribute to the expression of virulence genes controlled by agr. May also regulate target genes via an agr- independent pathway.

PTS system, glucose-specific component; The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS), a major carbohydrate active transport system, catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. This system is involved in glucose transport.

PTS system glucose-specific IIABC component; The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS), a major carbohydrate active -transport system, catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. This system is involved in alpha- and beta-glucoside transport (By similarity).

Conserved hypothetical protein; Regulatory protein involved in autolytic activity, multidrug resistance and virulence. Controls autolysis by inactivating LytM, LytN (autolysins) and SarV (autolysis activator) and activating ArlRS, LrgAB and LytSR (autolysis inhibitors). Acts as a dual regulator for resistance to multiple drugs by inactivating NorB and tet38 and activating NorA. Positively controls the expression of virulence accessory gene regulator (agr) to promote alpha-hemolysin (hla) transcription and down-regulates staphylococcal accessory regulator (sarS), leading to repression o [...]
