    The protein

    Protein family

  • MarR/DUF24 family

    • Paralogous protein(s)

  • YdeP, YkvN, YdzF

    • Kinetic information

  • Cys14 redox sensing Cys, has lower pKa of 6.36 PubMed

    • Domains

  • 5 alpha helices, 2 beta sheets, MarR-fold with wHTH motif, alpha4 major groove recognition helix, beta2 and 3 form the wing; alpha5 dimer interface PubMed

    • Modification

  • oxidized to Cys14-Cys49' intersubunit disulfides by disulfide stress PubMed
  • Cys14 and Cys49' are about 8-9 Angström apart in reduced HypR-Dimer, oxidation moves the major groove recognition alpha4 helices of the HypR dimer about 4 Angstroem towards each other that leads to activation of HypR PubMed
