Nitrogen metabolite repression protein nmrA

UniProtKB accession:  Q5AU62

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  May be a redox sensor protein. Has much higher affinity for NAD(P) than for NAD(P)H. Has similar affinity for NAD and NADP. Negative transcriptional regulator involved in the post-transcriptional modulation of the GATA-type transcription factor areA, forming part of a system controlling nitrogen metabolite repression (By similarity). Interferes with the interaction between areA and target DNA. Overexpression leads to areA inhibition.
