cd13831, HU, histone-like DNA-binding protein HU. This subfamily includes HU and HU-like domains. HU is a conserved nucleoid-associated protein (NAP) which binds non-specifically to duplex DNA with a particular preference for targeting nicked and bent DNA. It is highly basic and contributes to chromosomal compaction and maintenance of negative supercoiling, thus often referred to as histone-like protein. HU can induce DNA bends, condense DNA in a fiber and also interact with single stranded DNA. It contains two homologous subunits, alpha and beta, typically forming homodimers (alpha-alpha and beta-beta), except in E. coli and other enterobacteria, which form heterodimers (alpha-beta). In E. coli, HU binds uniformly to the chromosome, with a preference for damaged or distorted DNA structures and can introduce negative supercoils into closed circular DNA in the presence of topoisomerase I. Anabaena HU (AHU) shows preference for A/T-rich region in the center of its DNA binding site.
TIGR04547, putative_liporotein, MOLPALP family lipoprotein. Members of this family are surface lipoproteins, about 900 amino acids long on average, found only in the Mollicutes (Mycoplasma, Entomoplasma, Acholeplasma, Mesoplasma, Spiroplasma). Paralogs occur, such as MCAP_0360, MCAP_0361, and MCAP_0362 in Mycoplasma capricolum. This family shares significant N-terminal sequence similarity with STREFT (Secreted Thousand Residue Frequently Tandem), described by model TIGR04512; several members of the STREFT family have been misannotated as GnsA/GnsB family proteins. For proteins in this family, we suggest the name MOLPALP (Mollicutes Paralogous Lipoprotein) family lipoprotein [Cell envelope, Surface structures].

pfam02464, CinA, Competence-damaged protein. CinA is the first gene in the competence-inducible (cin) operon, and is thought to be specifically required at some stage in the process of transformation. This Pfam family consists of putative competence-damaged proteins from the cin operon. Some members of this family have nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) deamidase activity.
TIGR04548, hypothetical_dnad-like_replication_protein, DnaD family protein, Mollicutes type. This model describes the full length of a family of proteins in the Mollicutes (Mycoplasma, Spiroplasma, Mesoplasma, etc.) homologous to the N-terminal region of DnaD from Bacillus subtilis. [DNA metabolism, DNA replication, recombination, and repair].
