Function

TRAP_STAA8 Signal transduction protein, which is a major regulator of staphylococcal pathogenesis. Phosphorylated TRAP leads to the activation of agr system and consequent RNAIII synthesis resulting in the expression of several virulence factors. Up-regulates the expression of most toxins and genes known to be necessary for biofilm formation.[1] [2]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The crystal structure of the signal transduction protein TRAP is reported at 1.85 A resolution. The structure of TRAP consists of a central eight-stranded beta-barrel flanked asymmetrically by helices and is monomeric both in solution and in the crystal structure. A formate ion was found bound to TRAP identically in all four molecules in the asymmetric unit.
