YscR
YscR is a protein that plays a crucial role in the bacterial cell wall synthesis and stress response. It is a member of the YscR family of proteins, which are found in various bacterial species. YscR is involved in the regulation of the cell wall synthesis pathway, specifically in the synthesis of peptidoglycan, a major component of the bacterial cell wall. It acts as a sensor and regulator, responding to changes in the cell wall environment and coordinating the expression of genes involved in cell wall synthesis and repair.
YscR is a homodimer, with each monomer containing a DNA-binding domain and a sensor domain. The DNA-binding
YscR is also involved in the regulation of other cellular processes, such as cell division and sporulation.
