CarD-like/TRCF domain CarD is a Myxococcus xanthus protein required for the activation of light- and starvation-inducible genes. This family includes the presumed N-terminal domain. CarD interacts with the zinc-binding protein CarG, to form a complex that regulates multiple processes in Myxococcus xanthus. This family also includes a domain to the N-terminal side of the DEAD helicase of TRCF proteins. TRCF displaces RNA polymerase stalled at a lesion, binds to the damage recognition protein UvrA, and increases the template strand repair rate during transcription. This domain is involved in binding to the stalled RNA polymerase.
