| UniProt functional annotation for Q2FXJ2 | |||
| UniProt code: Q2FXJ2. |
| Organism: | Staphylococcus aureus (strain NCTC 8325 / PS 47). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Staphylococcaceae; Staphylococcus. | |
| Function: | Binds human plasma haptoglobin-hemoglobin complexes, haptoglobin and hemoglobin. Binds haptoglobin-hemoglobin complexes with significantly higher affinity than haptoglobin alone. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12823809}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted, cell wall {ECO:0000305}; Peptidoglycan- anchor {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Induction: | Expression was observed only in the late logarithmic and stationary phase. Repressed by the ferric uptake repressor (fur) protein in the presence of iron. | |
| Domain: | The NEAT 1 domain binds with higher affinity than the NEAT 2 domain haptoglobin-hemoglobin complexes, haptoglobin and hemoglobin. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the IsdH family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
