CC -!- FUNCTION: Toxic component of one of 6 LXG toxin-immunity modules in
CC this strain. They promote kin selection, mediate competition in
CC biofilms, and drive spatial segregation of different strains,
CC indicating that LXG toxins may help avoid warfare between strains in
CC biofilms. Mediates intercellular competition during biofilm formation;
CC disruption of the operon disadvantages the bacteria, but overexpression
CC of the cognate immunity protein restores growth in competition with
CC wild-type. Overexpression alone in situ causes growth arrest but not
CC cell lysis, a large decrease in chromosomal DNA content and the
CC production of anucleate cells. No effect is seen on rRNA. Co-
CC overexpression with cognate immunity protein YezG does not cause growth
CC arrest. The toxic effect is dependent on the epsA and tapA operons
CC which are required for biofilm formation (PubMed:34280190). Binds DNA
CC in the presence and absence of YezG (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E0TU96, ECO:0000269|PubMed:34280190}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with cognate immunity protein YezG but not with non-
CC cognate immunity protein YobK. The interaction probably inhibits the
CC toxic activity of YeeF. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22200572}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22882210}.
CC Membrane raft {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22882210}. Note=Present in detergent-
CC resistant membrane (DRM) fractions that may be equivalent to eukaryotic
CC membrane rafts; these rafts include proteins involved in signaling,
CC molecule trafficking and protein secretion (PubMed:22882210). Delivery
CC to target cells requires the type VII secretion system (T7SS) and YukE
CC (PubMed:34280190). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22882210,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:34280190}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Expressed on rich and minimal solid media likely in early
CC stationary phase; dependent on DegSU. Not expressed in liquid LB, but
CC only under conditions that promote biofilm formation.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:34280190}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Deletion of the yeeF-yezG operon has no visible
CC growth phenotype, however it is out-competed by wild-type cells.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:34280190}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: In the N-terminal section; belongs to the LXG family.
CC {ECO:0000303|PubMed:22200572}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Was originally suggested to be an RNase.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:22200572}.
