IPR022369

Description

IPR022369 is a Integral membrane protein TerC, riboswitch-linked.

<p>This entry represents a subset of TerC proteins which are mostly encoded on genes preceded by a structured RNA element known as the yybP-ykoY leader. The yybP-ykoY leader (also known as SraF) may function in the regulation of these genes as riboswitch [[cite:PUB00053669]]. This entry also includes the putative membrane-bound redox modulator Alx [[cite:PUB00009923]].</p> <p>A family containing a number of integral membrane proteins is named after TerC protein. TerC has been implicated in resistance to tellurium, and may be involved in efflux of tellurium ions. The tellurite-resistant Escherichia coli strain KL53 was found during testing of a group of clinical isolates for antibiotic and heavy metal ion resistance [[cite:PUB00008408]]. The determinant of the strain's tellurite resistance was located on a large conjugative plasmid, and analyses showed the genes terB, terC, terD and terE were essential for conservation of this resistance. Members of this family contain a number of conserved aspartates which may be involved in metal ion binding.</p> <p>A TerC homologue is known from the chloroplast thylakoid membrane from<i>Arabidopsis</i>which is important for thylakoid membrane biogenesis in the developing chloroplast [[cite:PUB00076704]]; it is required for insertion of proteins into the thylakoid membrane [[cite:PUB00085185]].</p>
