phosphoacceptor receiver (REC) domain of uncharacterized response regulators containing a CheC domain
This subfamily is composed of uncharacterized proteins containing an N-terminal REC domain and a C-terminal CheC domain that may function as the output/effector domain of a response regulator. CheC is a CheY-P phosphatase, affecting the level of phosphorylated CheY which controls the sense of flagella rotation and determine swimming behavior of chemotactic bacteria. REC domains function as phosphorylation-mediated switches within response regulators, but some also transfer phosphoryl groups in multistep phosphorelays.
Feature 1: metal binding site [ion binding site], 3 residue positions
Conserved feature residue pattern:[ED] [ED] [ED]
Evidence:
Comment:based on metal binding site of other family members
Comment:signal transduction in two-component systems is mediated by metal ion dependent phosphorelay reactions between protein histidine kinases and phosphoaccepting receiver domains in response regulator proteins
Comment:for many receivers, Mg2+ is the preferred metal ion, but other divalent ions such as Mn2+ are also used
