    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • loss of [SW|genetic competence]
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • binds and transports transforming DNA
  • sequesters [protein|A4C8719E06F774A6EB4D79757CC79CF89E453A54|MreB] during expression of [Pubmed|genetic competence] to inhibit cell elongation during escape from competence [Pubmed|26091431]
  • Protein family

  • GSP E family (single member, according to UniProt)
  • Modification

  • phosphorylated on Arg-28, Arg-71- and Arg-330 [Pubmed|22517742]
  • Structure

  • [PDB|4PHT] (from Vibrio vulnificus, 38% identity) [pubmed|25092625]
  • [SW|Localization]
