Protein Domain : TraB/PryY-like IPR046345

Type  Family
Description  This entry includes TraB/PrgY proteins which have been identified in gut bacterium Enterococcus faecalis, and are induced by pheromones. This induction rends the host bacterium insensitive to self-induction by its own pheromones, and prevents the transfer of the pheromone-inducible conjugative plasmids to bacteria that already contain it [ , , ]. TraB proteins belong to the Tiki-like superfamily, and based on its homology to Tiki, it has been proposed that TraB acts as a protease in the inactivation of mating pheromone, cleaving at the amino-terminus [ , , ].This family includes TraB domain-containing proteins from mammals, whose function is not clear, and TraB-like proteins from bacteria.
