UniProt functional annotation for P03013

UniProt code: P03013.

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium (strain LT2 / SGSC1412 / ATCC 700720).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Salmonella.
 
Function: A DNA fragment of approximately 900 base pairs, adjacent to the fljB (H2) gene, which specifies the synthesis of phase-2 flagellin, can exist in either orientation with respect to fljB. The orientation of the inversion region controls expression of fljB. The hin gene occupies about two-thirds of the inversion region; it is required for the inversion of the fljB controlling region.
 
Similarity: Belongs to the site-specific recombinase resolvase family. {ECO:0000305}.
