Function

[PKNA_MYCTU] Key component of a signal transduction pathway that regulates cell growth and cell division via phosphorylation of target proteins such as FtsZ, Wag31, GlmU, FhaB, PstP, EmbR and Rv1422. Shows a strong preference for Thr versus Ser as the phosphoacceptor.^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]}
