whiB2

Gene
whiB2
Protein
Transcriptional regulator WhiB2
Organism
Mycobacterium smegmatis (strain ATCC 700084 / mc(2)155)
Length
129 amino acids
Function
Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Probably redox-responsive. The apo- but not holo-form probably binds DNA (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the WhiB family.

Protein
Transcriptional regulator WhiB2
Organism
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (strain ATCC 25618 / H37Rv)
Length
89 amino acids
Function
The apo-form functions as a chaperone, preventing aggregation or helping in correct refolding of a number of substrates; this activity does not require ATP or the ability to bind a Fe-S cluster. Chaperone activity is insensitive to the redox state of its cysteine residues. The apo-form has no protein disulfide reductase activity. The apo-form binds to its own promoter.
Similarity
Belongs to the WhiB family.
