Resuscitation-promoting factor RpfB

UniProtKB accession:  P9WG29

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Factor that stimulates resuscitation of dormant cells. Has peptidoglycan (PG) hydrolytic activity. Active in the pM concentration range. Has little to no effect on actively-growing cells. PG fragments could either directly activate the resuscitation pathway of dormant bacteria or serve as a substrate for endogenous Rpf, resulting in low molecular weight products with resuscitation activity.
