The protein
Protein family
Monovalent cation:proton antiporter 2 (CPA2) transporter (TC 2.A.37) family (with [protein|9A54C82323BA9220CAA6041E3745FAB9E222FE78|KhtU], according to UniProt)[SW|Domains]
contains a [SW|RCK_N domain] (aa 403-525) (according to [http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/?query=RCK+N-terminal+domain&sort=score UniProt])contains a [SW|RCK_C domain] at the C-terminus (aa 533-614) (according to [http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/?query=RCK+C-terminal+domain&sort=score UniProt])Effectors of protein activity
binds c-di-AMP, which likely activates export activity [pubmed|31061098]Structure
[PDB|4BWZ] (from Thermus thermophilus, corresponds to the transmembrane domain (aa 27 ... 402), 26% identity) [pubmed|23995679][PDB|4YS2] (S. aureus CpaA, the [SW|RCK_C domain] in complex with c-di-AMP, 58% identity)[SW|Localization]
