Functional information

Function Uniprot Member of the two-component regulatory system CitA/CitB essential for expression of citrate-specific fermentation genes. Phosphorylated CitB binds to two sites in the citS-citC intergenic region where it probably activates transcription of both genes.
Role Activator
Protein family CitT
