| Type | Family |
| Description | This family summarizes bacterial proteins related to CpxP, a periplasmic protein that forms part of a two-component system which acts as a global modulator of cell-envelope stress in Gram-negative bacteria. CpxP aids in combating extracytoplasmic protein-mediated toxicity, and may also be involved in the response to alkaline pH [ ]. Functioning as a dimer, it inhibits activation of the kinase CpxA, but also plays a vital role in the quality control system of P pili. It has been suggested that CpxP directly interacts with CpxA via its concave polar surface []. Another member of this family, Spy, is also a periplasmic protein that may be involved in the response to stress []. The homology between CpxP and Spy suggests similar functions. A characteristic 5-residue sequence motif LTXXQ is found repeated twice in many members of this family []. |
