Activating Compound | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
ATP | SpoIVFB activity requires ATP, which binds to the C-terminal cystathionine-beta-synthase domain of SpoIVFB. ATP probably regulates substrate access to the active site and renders cleavage sensitive to the cellular energy level | Bacillus subtilis | |
additional information | incorporation of SpoIVFB into preformed liposomes stimulates its ability to cleave pro-sigmaK | Bacillus subtilis |

E44Q | site-directed mutagenesis of SpoIVFB protein with an extra transmembrane segment , the mutant is inactive with substrate mutant pro-sigmaK S20G in contrast to the wild-type enzyme | Bacillus subtilis |
additional information | construction of SpoIVFB protein with an extra transmembrane segment attached to the N-terminus for increased expression rate and facilitated purification, overview. Deletion of 10 residues from the C-terminal end of SpoIVFB nearly eliminates cleavage of coexpressed pro-sigmaK in recombinant Escherichia coli | Bacillus subtilis |

pro-sigmaK + H2O | Bacillus subtilis | SpoIVFB protein and SpoIVFB protein with an extra transmembrane segment cleave membrane-tethered pro-sigmaK, releasing sigmaK to direct transcription of genes necessary for spore formation. The CBS domain of SpoIVFB interacts with pro-sugmaK, and ATP changes the interaction, suggesting that ATP regulates substrate access to the active site and renders cleavage sensitive to the cellular energy level | sigmaK + sigmaK propeptide | - |
