    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • deletion of ''kinD'' suppresses the [SW|sporulation] defect of matrix mutants, while its overproduction delays [SW|sporulation] [Pubmed|20689749]
  • inactivation of ''[gene|511E71BB1981758857854C8E9BF657287CE60C11|kinD]'' restores beta-lactam resistance in a ''[gene|081DF3EE9FA56209D648C7677188C61CE3AA8E41|sigM]'' mutant [Pubmed|22211522]
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • autophosphorylation, phosphorylation of [protein|9896B99346B0D3F6D57F57377DB253B46135A37A|Spo0F], regulates the onset of sporulation by inhibiting the activity of [protein|2C54FE2ADC82FF414D732018C90649D477A925AD|Spo0A] until matrix, or a component therein, is sensed [http://mbio.asm.org/content/1/1/e00035-10.full PubMed]
  • dual role as a [SW|phosphatase] or a [SW|kinase], activity is linked to the presence of extracellular matrix in the biofilms [Pubmed|20689749]
  • mainly active in the younger, outer regions of a colony (with [protein|A656321846B2E0D1F39B528E2D8B8E620CCD1148|KinC]) [Pubmed|21097618]
  • ATP + protein L-histidine --> ADP + protein N-phospho-L-histidine (according to UniProt)
  • [SW|Domains]

  • two transmembrane segments, between them the extracellular pyruvate-binding sensing domain that consists of tandem PAS-like domains [Pubmed|23436677,22716461]
  • see [Pubmed|22716461] for a scheme of the domain organization
  • [SW|Histidine kinase domain] (aa 298-505) (according to UniProt)
  • Modification

  • autophosphorylation on a His residue
  • Effectors of protein activity

  • activity is stimulated by direct or indirect interaction with [protein|4DAB7847EA3848A34432C80124464543FA3DCA0F|Med] [Pubmed|21622736]
  • L-malate seems to trigger KinD activity [Pubmed|22716461], but this effect may be indirect due to the excretion of pyruvate that directly binds the extracytoplasmic sensing domain of KinD [Pubmed|23436677]
  • kinase activity is triggered and phosphatase activity is decreased by increased osmotic pressure [Pubmed|22882172]
  • activity is triggered in the presence of glycerol + manganese [Pubmed|23564171]
  • Structure

  • [PDB|4DBJ] (extracytoplasmic sensing domain) [Pubmed|23436677]
  • [SW|Localization]

  • cell membrane (according to UniProt)
