phosphoacceptor receiver (REC) domain of YesN and related helix-turn-helix containing response regulators
This family is composed of uncharacterized response regulators that contain a REC domain and a AraC family helix-turn-helix (HTH) DNA-binding output domain, including Bacillus subtilis uncharacterized transcriptional regulatory protein YesN and Staphylococcus aureus uncharacterized response regulatory protein SAR0214. YesN is a member of the two-component regulatory system YesM/YesN and SAR0214 is a member of the probable two-component regulatory system SAR0215/SAR0214. Also included in this family is the AlgR-like group of LytTR/AlgR family response, which includes Pseudomonas aeruginosa positive alginate biosynthesis regulatory protein AlgR and Bacillus subtilis sensory transduction protein LytT, among others. REC domains function as phosphorylation-mediated switches within response regulators, but some also transfer phosphoryl groups in multistep phosphorelays.
Feature 1: metal binding site [ion binding site], 3 residue positions
Conserved feature residue pattern:[ED] [ED] [ED]
Evidence:
Comment:signal transduction in two-component systems is mediated by metal ion dependent phosphorelay reactions between protein histidine kinases and phosphoaccepting receiver domains in response regulator proteins
Comment:for many receivers, Mg2+ is the preferred metal ion, but other divalent ions such as Mn2+ are also used
