cd17546, REC_hyHK_CKI1_RcsC-like, phosphoacceptor receiver (REC) domain of hybrid sensor histidine kinases/response regulators similar to Arabidopsis thaliana CKI1 and Escherichia coli RcsC. This family is composed of hybrid sensor histidine kinases/response regulators that are sensor histidine kinases (HKs) fused with a REC domain, similar to the sensor histidine kinase CKI1 from Arabidopsis thaliana, which is involved in multi-step phosphorelay (MSP) signaling that mediates responses to a variety of important stimuli in plants. MSP involves a signal being transferred from HKs via histidine phosphotransfer proteins (AHP1-AHP5) to nuclear response regulators. The CKI1 REC domain specifically interacts with the downstream signaling protein AHP2, AHP3 and AHP5. The plant MSP system has evolved from the prokaryotic two-component system (TCS), which allows organisms to sense and respond to changes in environmental conditions. This family also includes bacterial hybrid sensor HKs such as Escherichia coli RcsC, which is a component of the Rcs signalling pathway that controls a variety of physiological functions like capsule synthesis, cell division, and motility. REC domains function as phosphorylation-mediated switches within response regulators, but some also transfer phosphoryl groups in multistep phosphorelays.
TIGR01730, COG0845:_Membrane-fusion_protein, RND family efflux transporter, MFP subunit. This model represents the MFP (membrane fusion protein) component of the RND family of transporters. RND refers to Resistance, Nodulation, and cell Division. It is, in part, a subfamily of pfam00529 (Pfam release 7.5) but hits substantial numbers of proteins missed by that model. The related HlyD secretion protein, for which pfam00529 is named, is outside the scope of this model. Attributed functions imply outward transport. These functions include nodulation, acriflavin resistance, heavy metal efflux, and multidrug resistance proteins. Most members of this family are found in Gram-negative bacteria. The proposed function of MFP proteins is to bring the inner and outer membranes together and enable transport to the outside of the outer membrane. Note, however, that a few members of this family are found in Gram-positive bacteria, where there is no outer membrane. [Transport and binding proteins, Unknown substrate].
cd00093, HTH_XRE, Helix-turn-helix XRE-family like proteins. Prokaryotic DNA binding proteins belonging to the xenobiotic response element family of transcriptional regulators.
pfam04754, Transposase_31, Putative transposase, YhgA-like. This family of putative transposases includes the YhgA sequence from Escherichia coli and several prokaryotic homologs.
TIGR02037, Probable_periplasmic_serine_protease_do/HhoA-like, periplasmic serine protease, Do/DeqQ family. This family consists of a set proteins various designated DegP, heat shock protein HtrA, and protease DO. The ortholog in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is designated MucD and is found in an operon that controls mucoid phenotype. This family also includes the DegQ (HhoA) paralog in E. coli which can rescue a DegP mutant, but not the smaller DegS paralog, which cannot. Members of this family are located in the periplasm and have separable functions as both protease and chaperone. Members have a trypsin domain and two copies of a PDZ domain. This protein protects bacteria from thermal and other stresses and may be important for the survival of bacterial pathogens.// The chaperone function is dominant at low temperatures, whereas the proteolytic activity is turned on at elevated temperatures.

TIGR00711, Uncharacterized_MFS-type_transporter_YhcA, drug resistance transporter, EmrB/QacA subfamily. This subfamily of drug efflux proteins, a part of the major faciliator family, is predicted to have 14 potential membrane-spanning regions. Members with known activities include EmrB (multiple drug resistance efflux pump) in E. coli, FarB (antibacterial fatty acid resistance) in Neisseria gonorrhoeae, TcmA (tetracenomycin C resistance) in Streptomyces glaucescens, etc. In most cases, the efflux pump is described as having a second component encoded in the same operon, such as EmrA of E. coli.

TIGR03302, OM_YfiO, outer membrane assembly lipoprotein YfiO. Members of this protein family include YfiO, a near-essential protein of the outer membrane, part of a complex involved in protein insertion into the bacterial outer membrane. Many proteins in this family are annotated as ComL, based on the involvement of this protein in natural transformation with exogenous DNA in Neisseria gonorrhoeae. This protein family shows sequence similarity to, but is distinct from, the tol-pal system protein YbgF (TIGR02795). [Protein fate, Protein and peptide secretion and trafficking].
