CC -!- FUNCTION: Repressor of comK, the master regulator of competence
CC development (PubMed:11849533). Overexpression seems to be lethal
CC (PubMed:11849533). Represses at least 20 genes that specify membrane-
CC localized and secreted proteins, including some that encode products
CC with antibiotic activity (PubMed:15743949). Binds to many AT-rich sites
CC in the chromosome, many of which are known or thought to derive from
CC horizontal gene transfer; helps keep mobile element ICEBs1 quiescent in
CC the genome (PubMed:21085634). Binds to its own promoter and is thus
CC probably autoregulatory (PubMed:21085634).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11849533, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15743949,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21085634}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, nucleoid
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21085634}. Note=Not uniformly distributed in the
CC nucleoid, it forms several clusters (PubMed:21085634).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21085634}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Expression is constant during late log phase and for at
CC least 2 hours in stationary phase (at protein level) (PubMed:11849533).
CC Probably repressed by AbrB and SinR, as well as partially by ComK
CC (PubMed:11849533). Probably negatively regulates its own expression
CC (PubMed:11849533, PubMed:21085634). There are 1000-3000
CC proteins/chromosome in exponential phase grown in minimal medium
CC (PubMed:21085634). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11849533,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21085634, ECO:0000305|PubMed:21085634}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The C-terminus (residues 95-191) binds DNA (PubMed:21085634).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21085634}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Increased expression of comK, increases
CC transformation about 5-fold, decreases sporulation efficiency about 5-
CC fold (PubMed:11849533). Increased excision of mobile element ICEBs1
CC (PubMed:21085634). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11849533,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21085634}.
