UniProt functional annotation for P13123

UniProt code: P13123.

Organism: Sulfolobus acidocaldarius (strain ATCC 33909 / DSM 639 / JCM 8929 / NBRC 15157 / NCIMB 11770).
Taxonomy: Archaea; Crenarchaeota; Thermoprotei; Sulfolobales; Sulfolobaceae; Sulfolobus.
 
Function: Can constrain negative DNA supercoils. May be involved in maintaining the integrity of the genome at high temperature. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P61990}.
 
Biophysicochemical properties: pH dependence: Highly stable from pH 0 to pH 12. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27853299}; Temperature dependence: Hyperthermostable. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27853299};
Subunit: Monomer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27853299}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27853299}.
Ptm: Lys-5 was 70% monomethylated in form 7a, 25% in form 7b, and 20% in form 7d. Lys-7 was 50% monomethylated in form 7a, 40% in form 7b, and 50% in form 7d. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3130377}.
Miscellaneous: Sac7a and Sac7b are truncated versions of the Sac7d protein, most likely resulting from post-translational processing, or degradation during isolation. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:7632679}.
Similarity: Belongs to the 7 kDa DNA-binding/endoribonuclease P2 family. {ECO:0000305}.
