CC -!- FUNCTION: Virulence regulator that has both architectural and
CC regulatory roles. Impacts cell wall functions and pathogenesis through
CC regulation of multiple genes, including the espACD operon, which is a
CC key ESX-1 component. Influences target gene expression positively or
CC negatively, depending on its binding position relative to the genes it
CC controls. Acts by binding directly to the DNA. May play a central role
CC in regulating virulence gene expression. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18685700,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21883526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22389481,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22479184, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23743602}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Binds DNA as a dimer of dimers.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21795602, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21883526}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P9WJB7; P9WJB7: espR; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-15937970, EBI-15937970;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, nucleoid
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22479184}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Negatively autoregulated (PubMed:22479184).
CC Transcriptionally regulated by the MprB/MprA and PhoP/PhoR two-
CC component systems (PubMed:25536998). Expression is growth phase-
CC dependent, peaking in the stationary phase (PubMed:22479184). Probably
CC induced upon phagocytosis (PubMed:18685700).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18685700, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22479184,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:25536998}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The N-terminal domain binds DNA and the C-terminal domain is
CC involved in dimerization. Both domains are required for transcriptional
CC activity and for ESX-1 function. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18685700,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21795602, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21883526}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Mutants exhibit growth defect during infection of
CC mice. They establish a stable infection by three weeks, but the
CC bacterial burden is an order of magnitude less than the wild-type.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18685700}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Was originally thought to be secreted via the ESX-1 secretion
CC system, but it was probably released in the medium via cell lysis.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18685700, ECO:0000305|PubMed:22479184}.
