mucA

Gene
mucA
Protein
Sigma factor AlgU negative regulatory protein
Organism
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (strain ATCC 15692 / DSM 22644 / CIP 104116 / JCM 14847 / LMG 12228 / 1C / PRS 101 / PAO1)
Length
194 amino acids
Function
Negative regulator of the sigma factor AlgU. Plays a role in the differentiation of P.aeruginosa into the alginate-producing form. Inactivation of mucA causes a switch from the non-mucoid to mucoid state resulting in constitutive expression of alginate biosynthetic genes.
Similarity
Belongs to the RseA family.
