The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity:
    • transcriptional regulator of many genes in response to thiol specific oxidative stress (transcription activator of trxA and trxB)
    • in addition, Spx inhibits transcription by binding to the C-terminal domain of the alpha subunit of RNAP (RpoA), disrupting complex formation between RNAP and certain transcriptional activator proteins like ResD and ComA
    • in response to thiol specific oxidative stress, Spx can also activate transcription, making it a general regulator that exerts both positive and negative control over transcription initiation
    • involved in competence regulation PubMed

  • Paralogous protein(s): MgsR

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information:
  • Domains: CXXC (10-13): Acts as a disulfide switch for the redox-sensitive transcriptional regulation of genes that function in thiol homeostasis.
  • Modification: Cysteine oxidation of the CXXC motif
  • Effectors of protein activity:

Additional information

Expression and regulation

  • Regulatory mechanism: transcription repression
  • Additional information:
    • post-translational control by ClpX-ClpP: Spx naturally contains a C-terminal sequence that resembles the SsrA tag and targets the protein for degradation. PubMed
    • proteolysis is enhanced by YjbH PubMed and counter-acted by YirB PubMed
    • the mRNA is substantially stabilized upon depletion of RNase Y (the half-life of the monocistronic spx mRNA increases from 1 to 6 min) PubMed
