Bacillus subtilis YABJ
Overview
The yabJ gene in Bacillus subtilis is required for adenine-mediated, repression of purine biosynthetic genes in vivo and codes for an, acid-soluble, 14-kDa protein. The molecular mechanism of YabJ is unknown., YabJ is a member of a large, widely distributed family of proteins of, unknown biochemical function. The 1.7-A crystal structure of YabJ reveals, a trimeric organization with extensive buried hydrophobic surface and an, internal water-filled cavity. The most important finding in the structure, is a deep, narrow cleft between subunits lined with nine side chains that, are invariant among the 25 most similar homologs. This conserved site is, proposed to be a binding or catalytic site for a ligand or substrate that, is common to YabJ and other members of the YER057c/YjgF/UK114 family of, proteins.
