<p>The annotation score provides a heuristic measure of the annotation content of a UniProtKB entry or proteome.

<p>This section provides any useful information about the protein, mostly biological knowledge.<p><a href='/help/function_section' target='_top'>More...</a></p>Functioni

A DNA-binding protein that acts in a fashion similar to H-NS protein upon overexpression, represses a number of genes including the cryptic blg operon, hns, papB and the proU locus (PubMed:8890170).

A subset of H-NS/StpA-regulated genes also require Hha for repression; Hha and Cnu (YdgT) increases the number of genes DNA bound by H-NS/StpA and may also modulate the oligomerization of the H-NS/StpA-complex (PubMed:23543115).

Repression can be inhibited by dominant-negative mutants of StpA or H-NS (PubMed:8755860).

(Microbial infection) Originally isolated as a suppressor of a splicing defect of the thymidylate synthase (td) gene from bacteriophage T4 (PubMed:1480493).

Acts as an RNA chaperone, accelerating splicing of viral pre-mRNA. Binds preferentially to unstructured over structured RNA; does not have a detectable high-affinity RNA-binding site in the pre-mRNA. There do not seem to be any specific RNA targets in transcribed E.coli DNA (PubMed:17267410).

<p>The checksum is a form of redundancy check that is calculated from the sequence. It is useful for tracking sequence updates.</p> <p>It should be noted that while, in theory, two different sequences could have the same checksum value, the likelihood that this would happen is extremely low.</p> <p>However UniProtKB may contain entries with identical sequences in case of multiple genes (paralogs).</p> <p>The checksum is computed as the sequence 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check value (CRC64) using the generator polynomial: x<sup>64</sup> + x<sup>4</sup> + x<sup>3</sup> + x + 1.
