Primary Identifier | IPR026269 | Type | Family |
Short Name | DmsD-type |
description | DmsD binds to the twin-arginine signal peptide of DmsA and TorA [], although this latter binding is controversial []. It could be required for the biogenesis of DMSO reductase rather than for the targeting of DmsA to the inner membrane [, , ]. It may be part of a chaperone cascade complex that facilitates a folding-maturation pathway for the substrate protein []. This family also includes the chaperon protein YcdY []. YcdY acts as a chaperone that increases YcdX activity, maybe by facilitating the correct insertion of the zinc ions into the catalytic site of YcdX. It is involved in the swarming motility process []. |
