This gene is a member of the following regulons

AbrB regulon, PhoP regulon, Spo0A regulon

The gene

Basic information

  • Locus tag: BSU01920

Phenotypes of a mutant

Database entries

  • DBTBS entry: [1]
  • SubtiList entry: [2]

Additional information

The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity:
    • generates a thioether bond in SkfA, which links the cysteine residue Cys4 with the α-carbon of the methionine residue Met12 PubMed
  • Protein family: moaA/nifB/pqqE family (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Paralogous protein(s):

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information:
  • Domains:
  • Modification:
  • Cofactor(s): contains two [4Fe-4S] clusters PubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity:

Database entries

  • Structure:
  • KEGG entry: [3]
  • E.C. number:

Additional information

Expression and regulation

  • Regulation:
    • expressed under conditions that trigger sporulation (Spo0A) PubMed
    • repressed during logrithmic growth (AbrB) PubMed
    • induced by phosphate starvation (PhoP) PubMed
  • Additional information: Northern blotting during during phosphate limitation showed an intense 0.25 kb skfA-specific transcript, and a weaker 6.5 kb skfA-skfB-skfC-skfE-skfF-skfG-skfH transcript. The skfA transcript is stabilized by a stem-loop structure in the skfA-skfB intergenic region. PubMed
