YIEGIA protein This family includes the B. subtilis YphB protein, which is functionally uncharacterised. Its expression is regulated by the sporulation transcription factor sigma-F, however it is not essential for sporulation or germination. This is not a homologue of E. coli YphB, which belongs to pfam01263. This family of proteins is found in bacteria. Proteins in this family are typically between 276 and 300 amino acids in length and contain a conserved YIEGIA motif. Structure predictions show that these proteins contain an N-terminal transmembrane domain composed of five alpha helices. This domain is followed by a C-terminal domain that is likely cytosolic. Structure prediction shows that this family likely forms a homohexameric structure. Structure prediction also shows that this complex is capped by a homohexamer of proteins belonging to pfam21835.
