This gene is a member of the following [SW|regulons]

• [SW|SigG regulon]

Gene

Coordinates on the chromosome (coding sequence): 1,461,770 -> 1,462,798

The protein

Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

• repairs a special thymine dimer (5-thyminyl-5,6-dihydrothymine), which is commonly called spore photoproduct at the early germination phase

[SW|Cofactors]

• contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster, uses the [4Fe-4S] cluster to reduce SAM

Structure

• [PDB|4FHC] (SplB from ''Geobacillus thermodenitrificans'', 72% identity, 90% similarity) [Pubmed|22761404]

Expression and Regulation: [[this]]

Biological materials

Mutant

• BP130 (del ''splB''::''spc''), available in [SW|Fabian Commichau]'s lab
