ID MTRB_BACPU Reviewed; 76 AA. AC P48064; DT 01-FEB-1996, integrated into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot. DT 01-FEB-1996, sequence version 1. DT 04-NOV-2026, entry version 97. DE RecName: Full=Transcription attenuation protein MtrB; DE AltName: Full=Trp RNA-binding attenuation protein; DE Short=TRAP; DE AltName: Full=Tryptophan RNA-binding attenuator protein; GN Name=mtrB; OS Bacillus pumilus (Bacillus mesentericus). OC Bacteria; Bacillati; Bacillota; Bacilli; Caryophanales; Bacillaceae; OC Bacillus. OX NCBI_TaxID=1408; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [GENOMIC DNA]. RX PubMed=7836324; DOI=10.1128/jb.177.3.839-842.1995; RA Hoffman R.J., Gollnick P.; RT "The mtrB gene of Bacillus pumilus encodes a protein with sequence and RT functional homology to the trp RNA-binding attenuation protein (TRAP) of RT Bacillus subtilis."; RL J. Bacteriol. 177:839-842(1995). CC -!- FUNCTION: Required for transcription attenuation control in the Trp CC operon. This trans-acting factor seems to recognize a 10 bases CC nucleotide sequence in the Trp leader transcript causing transcription CC termination. Binds the leader RNA only in presence of L-tryptophan. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Oligomer of 11 identical subunits arranged in doughnut-like CC structure. {ECO:0000250}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MtrB family. {ECO:0000305}.
