Stage 0 sporulation protein A

UniProtKB accession:  P52934

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  May play the central regulatory role in sporulation. It may be an element of the effector pathway responsible for the activation of sporulation genes in response to nutritional stress. Spo0A may act in concert with Spo0H (a sigma factor) to control the expression of some genes that are critical to the sporulation process. Repressor of abrB, activator of the spoIIa operon. Binds the DNA sequence 5'-TGNCGAA-3' (0A box) (By similarity).
