Hfq is found in enteric bacteria. SAP binds in a calcium-dependent fashion to a variety of ligands. Relevance Since Hfq is required for gene regulation and infectivity of some Gram-negative bacteria its mutations can eliminate infectivity of Lyme disease caused by the bacteria Borellia burgdorferi, for example. Structural highlights The 3D structure of a complex of SAP with the small molecule ligand AMP shows the nucleotide phosphate group bridging two Ca+2 ions and forming hydrogen bonds to Asn, Gln and Try residues of SAP .
