CC -!- FUNCTION: A DNA-binding protein that acts in a fashion similar to H-NS
CC protein upon overexpression, represses a number of genes including the
CC cryptic blg operon, hns, papB and the proU locus (PubMed:8890170). A
CC subset of H-NS/StpA-regulated genes also require Hha for repression;
CC Hha and Cnu (YdgT) increases the number of genes DNA bound by H-NS/StpA
CC and may also modulate the oligomerization of the H-NS/StpA-complex
CC (PubMed:23543115). Repression can be inhibited by dominant-negative
CC mutants of StpA or H-NS (PubMed:8755860). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23543115,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8755860, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8890170}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Originally isolated as a suppressor of
CC a splicing defect of the thymidylate synthase (td) gene from
CC bacteriophage T4 (PubMed:1480493). Acts as an RNA chaperone,
CC accelerating splicing of viral pre-mRNA. Binds preferentially to
CC unstructured over structured RNA; does not have a detectable high-
CC affinity RNA-binding site in the pre-mRNA. There do not seem to be any
CC specific RNA targets in transcribed E.coli DNA (PubMed:17267410).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1480493, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17267410}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: When overexpressed forms homodimers, can interact with the N-
CC terminus (residues 1-64) of H-NS (PubMed:8755860). May interact with
CC Hha and/or Cnu. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8755860, ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P0ACG1; P0ACF8: hns; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-551928, EBI-544934;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, nucleoid
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21903814}. Note=Scattered throughout the nucleoid
CC (PubMed:21903814). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21903814}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Expressed at low levels at 37 degrees Celsius, barely
CC detectable at 26 degrees Celsius; expression is repressed by hns and
CC partially activated by lrp (PubMed:8890170).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8890170}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Both the N-terminus (residues 1-76) and the C-terminus
CC (residues 90-134) have RNA chaperone activity for splicing of td, a
CC bacteriophage T4 pre-mRNA (PubMed:17267410).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17267410}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: No visible phenotype in rich medium; double hns-
CC stpA mutants grow slower and have reduced viable cell counts compared
CC to single hns mutants in MC1029 and MC4100 backgrounds
CC (PubMed:8890170). In 0.3M NaCl a double hns-stpA deletion up-regulates
CC 583 and down-regulates 86 genes, 363 of which are thought to have been
CC horizontally acquired; 131 are also up-regulated in a double cnu-hha
CC deletion (PubMed:23543115). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23543115,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8890170}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the histone-like protein H-NS family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
