The gene

Basic information

  • Locus tag: BSU34740

Phenotypes of a mutant

Database entries

  • DBTBS entry: no entry
  • SubtiList entry: [1]

Additional information

The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity:
  • Protein family: HPr family
  • Paralogous protein(s): HPr

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information:
  • Domains: HPr domain (1–85)
  • Modification: phosphorylation on Ser46 by HprK PubMed
  • Cofactor(s):
  • Effectors of protein activity:

Database entries


  • KEGG entry: [2]

Additional information

Crh does not possess the phosphorylation site used for PTS phosphotransfer (His-15 in PtsH), it can only be phosphorylated on Ser-46

Expression and regulation

  • Regulation: very weak stimuation of expression by citrate and succinate PubMed
  • Regulatory mechanism:
  • Additional information: Crh is weakly expressed. This results in part from a poorly conserved ribosomal binding site of the mRNA. PubMed
