Rsp1275 is a member of the Fnr-Crp family of transcriptional regulators. Homologues of the Fnr protein from ''E. coli'' have been identified in a variety of taxonomically diverse bacterial species. <ref>Spiro, S. 1994. The FNR family of transcriptional regulators.

Nucleic Acids Research 32(Web Server issue):W321-W326.</ref>The bacterium ''Rhodobacter sphaeroides" 2.4.1 encodes 8 members of this family, however only 2 have known function. Models of 7 of them, including RSP1275, were successfully obtained using 3D-Jigsaw, all being very similar in structure to Crp (the only one with crystal structure solved). The DNA binding domain helix-turn-helix is located in the C-terminal, and the N-terminal part contains the allosteric effector domain.
