UPF0413 family (single member, according to UniProt)
contains Zn atoms (coordinated by the N-terminal His-rich region) PubMed
Structure
6GHB (PDB) (oxidized Geobacillus kaustophilus protein complexed with B. subtilis Spx) PubMed
6GHO (PDB) (Geobacillus kaustophilus protein complexed with B. subtilis Spx) PubMed
Effectors of protein activity
SpxH aggregates under stress conditions, resulting in the inability to bind to Spx, and therefore in stabilization of Spx PubMed
Zn atom is released upon treatment with strong oxidants PubMed
cytosolic protein
aggregates localize at nucleoid-free regions of the cell PubMed
