| UniProt functional annotation for P0DKX7 | |||
| UniProt code: P0DKX7. |
| Organism: | Bordetella pertussis (strain Tohama I / ATCC BAA-589 / NCTC 13251). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Betaproteobacteria; Burkholderiales; Alcaligenaceae; Bordetella. | |
| Function: | This adenylate cyclase belongs to a special class of bacterial toxin. It causes whooping cough by acting on mammalian cells by elevating cAMP-concentration and thus disrupts normal cell function. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=ATP = 3',5'-cyclic AMP + diphosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15389, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:58165; EC=4.6.1.1; | |
| Activity regulation: | Activated by host calmodulin. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted. | |
| Domain: | The Gly-rich region is probably involved in binding calcium, which is required for target cell-binding or cytolytic activity. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Ptm: | Released in a processed form. | |
| Ptm: | Palmitoylated by CyaC. The toxin only becomes active when modified in position Lys-983. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10196151, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7939682}. | |
| Similarity: | In the N-terminal section; belongs to the adenylyl cyclase class-2 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Similarity: | In the C-terminal section; belongs to the RTX prokaryotic toxin family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
