>Function >1|P43463|HTH-type transcriptional activator aarP|Providencia stuartii|AraC AarP activates the gene encoding 2'-N-acetyltransferase, capable of acetylating both peptidoglycan and certain aminoglycoside antibiotics. Introduction of AarP on a multicopy plasmid confers a Mar phenotype with higher resistance levels to tetracycline, chloramphenicol and ciprofloxacin. >2|P34000|HTH-type transcriptional regulator acrR (Potential acrAB operon repressor)|Escherichia coli O6|TetR AcrR represses its own expression. AcrR represses the expression of the acrAB operon. The expression of the gene micF could be under the AcrR control. >4|P19219|Methylphosphotriester-DNA alkyltransferase|Bacillus subtilis|AraC In Bacillus subtilis, the adaptive response to DNA alkylation depends on the ada operon, which consists of the adaA and adaB genes. The AdaA protein is a methylphosphotriester DNA methyltransferase and it is a transcriptional activator of the ada operon. >5|P06134|ADA regulatory protein (Regulatory protein of adaptative response) [Contains: Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.63) (O-6-methylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase)]|Escherichia coli|AraC The ada gene product has both repair and regulatory activities. It acts as an enzyme repairing alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction: the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated. It can also repair O-4 methylthymine. Cys 321 is the methyl acceptor site required for the removal of the methyl groups from O-6-methyl-guanine and O-4-methylthymine, two highly mutagenic lesions. Cys 79 is required for demethylation of phosphometyltriesters in the sugar phosphate backbone. Although methylated phosphates are innocuous, this lesion is readily produced for methylating agents and provides a sensitive regulatory signal that leads to the induction of Ada regulon. Once Ada has a methylated Cys-69 it becomes a transcriptional activator. This function resides in its N-terminus. >6|Q10630|Putative ADA regulatory protein (Regulatory protein of adaptative response) [Contains: Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.63) (O-6-methylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase)]|Mycobacterium tuberculosis|AraC It acts as an enzyme repairing alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme.

Type III secretion and infection in P. aeruginosa are encoded by three types of gene products that include components of a secretory apparatus (ExsD, PscB-L, and PscN-U), proteins mediating the translocation of effectors into the host cell cytoplasm (PopB and PopD), and effector proteins (ExoS, ExoT, ExoU and ExoY) that are postulated to disrupt normal cellular processes. Type III-mediated effector translocation is postulated to inhibit the phagocytic response to infection, allow bacterial replication, and promote epithelial injury. ExoS is an ADP-ribosyltransferase. Host target proteins modified by ExoS include members of the H- and K-Ras family of proteins, vimentin, the Fc region of IgG3, and apolipoprotein A1. Of these targets, ADP-ribosylation of Ras has been correlated to the uncoupling of Ras-mediated signal transduction in PC-12 neuronal cells. ExoU expression is correlated with acute cytotoxicity and lung damage, but the role of ExoT remains elusive. ExoY is an extracellular adenylate cyclase. >46|P23774|987P fimbrial operon positive regulatory protein fapR|Escherichia coli|AraC FapR is a positive regulator of the expression of the 987P operon for the fimbrial protein in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli. >47|Q47129|Transcriptional activator feaR|Escherichia coli|AraC Positive regulator of the tynA/maoA and feaB/padA, the genes for 2-phenylethylamine catabolism. >60|P41782|Transcriptional regulator hilD|Salmonella typhimurium|AraC HilD participates in the regulation of HilA. >61|P31778|Regulatory protein hrpB|Ralstonia solanacearum|AraC HrpB is a positive regulator of hypersensitive response genes involved in plant pathogenicity and partly in its own synthesis in minimal medium. >64|P39437|Invasion protein invF|Salmonella typhimurium|AraC InvF acts as a regulator of the invasion operon.
