BREX system Lon protease-like protein BrxL N-terminal
This entry represents the N-terminal domain of BREX system Lon protease-like protein BrxL from Bacillus cereus and similar proteins. BrxL is part of a type 1 BREX system, which contains a C-terminal Lon-like protease domain (Pfam:PF05362). BREX syste ...
This entry represents the N-terminal domain of BREX system Lon protease-like protein BrxL from Bacillus cereus and similar proteins. BrxL is part of a type 1 BREX system, which contains a C-terminal Lon-like protease domain (Pfam:PF05362). BREX systems (bacteriophage exclusion) provide immunity against bacteriophage, a system that allows phage adsorption but prevents phage DNA replication, without degradation of the phage DNA [1].
The Lon serine proteases must hydrolyse ATP to degrade protein substrates. In Escherichia coli, these proteases are involved in turnover of intracellular proteins, including abnormal proteins following heat-shock. The active site for protease activit ...
The Lon serine proteases must hydrolyse ATP to degrade protein substrates. In Escherichia coli, these proteases are involved in turnover of intracellular proteins, including abnormal proteins following heat-shock. The active site for protease activity resides in a C-terminal domain. The Lon proteases are classified as family S16 in Merops.

BREX systems (bacteriophage exclusion) provide immunity against bacteriophage, a system that allows phage adsorption but prevents phage DNA replication, without degradation of the phage DNA [1]. Methylation of bacterial DNA by PglX probably guides self/non-self discrimination. This entry also includes a few uncharacterised viral sequences.
