Function

[YYCF_BACSU] Member of the two-component regulatory system YycG/YycF involved in the regulation of the ftsAZ operon, the yocH, ykvT, cwlO, lytE, ydjM, yjeA, yoeB genes and the tagAB and tagDEF operons. Probably phosphorylates YycF. Binds to the ftsAZ P1 promoter sequence in vitro. YycF has been shown to directly bind to the regulatory regions of yocH, ykvT, tagAB/tagDEF. Activates cwlO, lytE and ydjM and represses yoeB and yjeA.^{[1] [2] [3]}
