Function

DHAK_ECOLI Dihydroxyacetone binding subunit of the dihydroxyacetone kinase, which is responsible for phosphorylating dihydroxyacetone. Binds covalently dihydroxyacetone in hemiaminal linkage. Acts also as a corepressor of DhaR by binding to its sensor domain, in the absence of dihydroxyacetone.
