CC -!- FUNCTION: Global transcriptional regulator that plays a key role in
CC stress response and exerts either positive or negative regulation of
CC genes (PubMed:12642660, PubMed:15659166, PubMed:16885442,
CC PubMed:18662407, PubMed:18687074, PubMed:29271514). Acts by interacting
CC with the C-terminal domain of the alpha subunit of the RNA polymerase
CC (RNAP) (PubMed:12642660, PubMed:15659166, PubMed:18687074,
CC PubMed:20084284). This interaction can enhance binding of RNAP to the
CC promoter region of target genes and stimulate their transcription, or
CC block interaction of RNAP with activator proteins and repress
CC transcription (PubMed:12642660, PubMed:15659166, PubMed:18687074,
CC PubMed:20084284). Exhibits no DNA-binding activity (PubMed:15659166,
CC PubMed:18687074). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12642660,

CC -!- FUNCTION: Induces the expression of a large number of genes in response
CC to a variety of stress conditions, such as disulfide, heat and cell
CC wall stress, while concurrently repressing transcription of genes
CC involved in various developmental and growth-related pathways during
CC periods of extreme stress (PubMed:12642660, PubMed:14597697). Functions
CC in the oxidative stress response via induction of the transcription of
CC thioredoxin (trxA) and thioredoxin reductase (trxB) during thiol-
CC specific oxidative (disulfide) stress (PubMed:14597697,
CC PubMed:15659166, PubMed:18687074). Mediates response to oxidative
CC stress caused by paraquat (PQ) via induction of the methionine
CC sulfoxide reductase genes, msrA and msrB (PubMed:18662407). Also acts
CC as a transcriptional activator of the bacillithiol (BSH) biosynthesis
CC genes in response to oxidizing conditions and thio-reactive compounds
CC (PubMed:23894131). Involved in heat stress response and thermotolerance
CC development, which results in diminished cellular protein aggregates
CC (PubMed:24417481). Plays an important adaptive role in the cell wall
CC stress response (PubMed:29271514). Participates in sulfate-dependent
CC control of organosulfur metabolism. Negatively controls, via CymR, the
CC expression of the organosulfur utilization operons ytmI, yxeI and ssu,
CC and directly activates yrrT operon expression during growth in medium
CC containing methionine as sole sulfur source (PubMed:16885442).
CC Negatively affects competence and sporulation (PubMed:11703662,
CC PubMed:12028382). Inhibits biofilm formation in response to disulfide
CC stress by repressing biofilm matrix genes (PubMed:30718304).

CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Under non-stress conditions, Spx is degraded by
CC ClpXP and, to a lesser extent, by ClpCP (PubMed:12057962,
CC PubMed:12642660, PubMed:19074380). Efficient dedradation by ClpXP
CC requires the adapter protein SpxH/YjbH (PubMed:17908206,
CC PubMed:19074380). Binding to SpxH/YjbH reduces the overall
CC conformational flexibility of Spx and stabilizes the C-terminal ClpX
CC recognition region of Spx (PubMed:30982633). In addition, activity is
CC modulated by the formation of a disulfide bound within the N-terminal
CC Cys-X-X-Cys (CXXC) motif, which is required for the transcriptional
CC activation of trxA and trxB, or for the activation of msrAB operon
CC expression following paraquat oxidative stress (PubMed:15659166,
CC PubMed:18662407). However, it seems that formation of the disulfide
CC bound is not essential for induction of all Spx-controlled genes, as
CC for example the case of BSH biosynthesis genes (PubMed:23894131).
CC Similarly, induction of the Spx regulon during cell wall stress is not
CC accompanied by oxidation of the disulfide switch, but requires Spx
CC stabilization by the anti-adapter protein SpxO/YirB (PubMed:29271514,
CC PubMed:30001325). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12057962,

CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with the C-terminal domain of the alpha subunit of
CC the RNAP (PubMed:12642660, PubMed:16249335, PubMed:19580872,
CC PubMed:20084284, PubMed:22307755). A single Spx monomer interacts with
CC RNAP to form the transcription activation complex (PubMed:22307755).

CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Transcribed from at least five promoters located in the yjbC
CC regulatory region or in the yjbC-spx intergenic region
CC (PubMed:17158660, PubMed:29271514). Induced by heat, salt, ethanol and
CC disulfide stress and also by phosphate limitation (PubMed:11544224,
CC PubMed:14597697, PubMed:24417481). Induced by cell wall stress but not
CC by membrane stress (PubMed:29271514). Transcribed under partial control
CC of SigM ECF sigma factor (PubMed:17434969, PubMed:29271514). Repressed
CC by YodB and PerR. YodB protects a region that includes the P3 -10 and
CC -35 regions, while PerR binds to a region downstream of the P3
CC transcriptional start site (PubMed:17158660).

CC -!- DOMAIN: The C-terminal region is essential for structural folding and
CC for interaction with SpxH/YjbH (PubMed:24942655). A conformational
CC change during oxidation of Spx to the disulfide form likely alters the
CC structure of Spx alpha helix alpha4, which contains residues that
CC function in transcriptional activation and Spx/RNAP-promoter
CC interaction (PubMed:20084284). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20084284,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:24942655}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Inactivation of the gene results in ClpP-
CC independent competence development as well as partial suppression of
CC the sporulation defect conferred by clpP mutation (PubMed:11703662).
CC Null mutant shows hypersensitivity to disulfide stress and to paraquat
CC (PubMed:14597697, PubMed:18662407). Mutants have increased sensitivity
CC toward cell wall active antibiotics inhibiting both early and late
CC steps in peptidoglycan synthesis (PubMed:29271514). Cells lacking the
CC gene are defective in thermotolerance (PubMed:24417481).

CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ArsC family. Spx subfamily.
