UniProtKB accession:  P40676

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Transcription regulator that can specifically activate or repress expression of target genes (By similarity). Required for virulence and survival in the macrophage environment (PubMed:9284144). Probably activates the transcription of ssrB (PubMed:15491370, PubMed:19229334). Independently of ssrB activation, capable of stimulating the expression of virulence genes found on pathogenicity island 2 (SPI2) (PubMed:19229334). Probably activates expression of ispA, xseB genes, and of omp operon (PubMed:11882648).
