Ligands: EDO, U5P Related: 1non, 1xz8, 1xzn, 1a3c Gene: pyrR ("Bacillus caldolyticus" Heinen and Heinen 1972) Activity: Uracil phosphoribosyltransferase, with EC number 2.4.2.9 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [PYRR_BACCL] Regulates transcriptional attenuation of the pyrimidine nucleotide (pyr) operon by binding in a uridine-dependent manner to specific sites on pyr mRNA. This disrupts an antiterminator hairpin in the RNA and favors formation of a downstream transcription terminator, leading to a reduced expression of downstream genes (Probable). Also displays a weak uracil phosphoribosyltransferase activity which is not physiologically significant. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
