Phenotypes of a mutant

• reduced [SW|biofilm formation] (can be suppressed by inactivation of ''[gene|5A6FBAE6553343092862CB79E150F934978C32A9|sinR]'') [Pubmed|23737939]

The protein

[SW|Domains]

• contains a [SW|RCK_N domain] (according to [http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/?query=domain:RCK N-terminal domain* UniProt])

[SW|Localization]
