Genomic Context

Categories containing this gene/protein

List of homologs in different organisms, belongs to COG5002 (Galperin et al., 2021)

This gene is a member of the following regulons

Gene
Coordinates
2,976,068 → 2,977,807
The protein
Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity
autophosphorylation, phosphorylation of PhoP
ATP + protein L-histidine --> ADP + protein N-phospho-L-histidine (according to UniProt)
two transmembrane segments
PAS domain, for binding of an intermediate of wall teichoic acid biosynthesis (lipid V composed of poly(glycerol phosphate)) PubMed
Histidine kinase domain (aa 357-575) (according to UniProt)
Structure
3CWF (PDB) (extracellular domain)  PubMed
Modification
autophosphorylation on a His residue in response to the the availability of an intermediate of wall teichoic acid bioynthesis, autophosphorylation is prevented by binding of this intermediate to the intracellular PAS domain of PhoR PubMed
Effectors of protein activity
activity is inhibited by binding of an intermediate of wall teichoic acid biosynthesis (lipid V composed of poly(glycerol phosphate) to the intracellular PAS domain of PhoR PubMed
the kinase activity is activated by an intermediate in the WTA biosynthetic pathway (product of TagA or TagB) PubMed
Paralogous protein(s)
cell membrane (according to UniProt)
Expression and Regulation
