CadC C-terminal domain 1
CadC is an integral membrane protein of 512 amino acids comprising an N-terminal cytoplasmic DNA-binding domain, a transmembrane helix, and a C-terminal periplasmic domain. CadC belongs to the ToxR-like regulators that encompass biochemically non-modified one-component systems with similar gross topology, including several low pH-induced transcription regulators. Structural analysis of the C-terminal periplasmic domain indicates that it resembles the sensory domain of a (pH-activated) ToxR-like regulator. Furthermore, it is composed of two subdomains with a cavity at their interface that is suited to accommodate cadaverine, the feedback inhibitor of the Cad system. This is the N-terminal subdomain of the C-terminal periplasmic domain. It is composed of five-stranded beta-sheets.
