General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Photosensitive kinase that is involved in increased bacterial virulence upon exposure to light. Once ejected from an infected animal host, sunlight acts as an environmental signal that increases the virulence of the bacterium, preparing it for infection of the next host By similarity. This photoreceptor protein is directly related to the bacterium's survival and replication within host macrophages, as it is required for optimal replication of bacteria inside macrophages. Ref.2 |
| Catalytic activity | ATP + protein L-histidine = ADP + protein N-phospho-L-histidine. |
| Induction | Induced after invasion of host macrophages. Ref.2 |
| Post-translational modification | FMN binds covalently to cysteine after exposure to blue light and this bond is spontaneously broken in the dark By similarity. |
| Sequence similarities | Contains 2 PAC (PAS-associated C-terminal) domains. Contains 1 PAS (PER-ARNT-SIM) domain. |
| Sequence caution | The sequence CAJ12818.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. |
