Protein
Thermoregulatory protein LcrF
Function
Transcriptional activator of the thermally regulated virulent yopE gene. LcrF activity could be modulated by the interaction with an inducer molecule serving as a temperature messenger. The availability of the messenger would in turn be controlled by a temperature-responsive process serving as a cellular thermometer.
