Rst_2TM_1TM_TIR
Description
The Rst_2TM_1TM_TIR system is carried by the P2-like phage AC1 and protects Escherichia coli C against lambda, LF82_P8 and P2 phages. This system is composed of three proteins, Rst_TIR_tm, which contains a TIR (Toll/interleukin-1 receptor) domain, Rst_1TM_TIR, which contains a transmembrane helix (TM) and Rst_2TM_TIR, that contains two TMs (N/A) . Rousset et al. suggested that the TIR-containing protein could generate a nucleotide messenger that in turn could activate the associated transmembrane proteins.
Molecular mechanisms
As far as we are aware, the molecular mechanism is unknown.
Example of genomic structure
The Rst_2TM_1TM_TIR is composed of 3 proteins: Rst_2TM_TIR, Rst_TIR_tm and Rst_1TM_TIR.
Here is an example found in the RefSeq database:
The Rst_2TM_1TM_TIR system in Escherichia coli (GCF_004006575.1, NZ_CP034787) is composed of 3 proteins Rst_TIR_tm (WP_023140578.1) Rst_1TM_TIR (WP_001534953.1) Rst_2TM_TIR (WP_023140577.1)
