  • SubtiList entry: [2]

Additional information

The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity: binding to the mRNAs of bglS and the bglP-bglH operon, causes transcription antitermination (in presence of salicin and absence of glucose)
  • Protein family: transcriptional antiterminator bglG family (according to Swiss-Prot) BglG family of antiterminators

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information:
  • Domains:
    • N-terminal RNA binding domain Pubmed
    • 2xPRD (PTS regulation domains) PubMed
  • Modification:
    • phosphorylation at His-100 in PRD-1 by phosphorylated BglP, inhibits LicT antitermination activity
