Protein Domain : Transcriptional regulatory protein LytR-like IPR046947

Type	Family
Description	This family includes a group of LytTR domain-containing proteins, such as the transcriptional regulatory protein LytR and BtsR, the sensory transduction protein LytT and the Accessory gene regulator protein A. LytTR domain is a DNA-binding, potential winged helix-turn-helix (wHTH) domain [ , ], named after Bacillus subtilis LytT and Staphylococcus aureus lytR response regulators, involved in the regulation of cell autolysis []. Members of this entry are bacterial cytoplasmic proteins that regulate the production of important virulence factors, like extracellular polysaccharides, toxins and bacteriocins. These response regulators of the microbial two-component signal transduction systems contain N-terminal cheY-like domains and the LytTR domain in the C-terminal part is expected to bind to specific DNA sequences in the upstream regions of target genes [ ].
Short Name	LytR-like
