UniProt nameOxygen sensor histidine kinase response regulator DosT
EC (curated) EC 2.7.13.3
Curated functionInteracts with the two-component regulatory system DevR/DevS (DosR/DosS) involved in onset of the dormancy response. Required for full induction of the DevR (DosR) regulon; required during early adaptation to anaerobiosis, to start induction of the DevR regulon. May act as a direct hypoxia/oxygen sensor. O(2) acts as a switch, with the Fe(2+)-O(2)-bound protein inactive in autophosphorylation. Autophosphorylates under anaerobic but not aerobic conditions, binding of NO or CO has no effect on autophosphorylation. Binds a number of gases; O(2), NO, CO. May be a secondary sensor for CO. Donates a.

Conservation & selection (intra-MTBC, 145 209 strains) pseudogene candidate

pN/pS 0.178 · strong purifying
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 6 synonymous, 3 missense, 0 nonsense, 1 frameshift
Disruption 1 distinct premature-stop/frameshift site(s); most common in 25.72% of strains (37352) · clonal

pN/pS from segregating SNPs (singletons removed) normalised by possible sites. Low pN/pS = purifying selection (a strong signal that a "hypothetical" is a real, constrained gene). A high pN/pS is ambiguous: relaxed constraint or positive selection (drug resistance, antigenic variation) inflate it; e.g. rpoB/katG/pncA score high here for resistance, not loss of function. A clonal disruption (one allele over a clade) suggests lineage pseudogenisation; a convergent one (many independent alleles) is typical of resistance loss-of-function.

STRING combines evidence channels (neighborhood, fusion, cooccurrence, coexpression, experimental, database, text-mining) into a 0–1000 score. The ctx badge marks edges carried by the genomic-context channels (conserved neighborhood, fusion, phylogenetic co-occurrence), which are independent of orthology and structure and the strongest signal for an unknown gene. The no text-mining column recomputes the score from data alone, so a link that does not depend on the literature is visible. Association is a function hypothesis, not proof: corroborate with the operon context and the primary literature before assigning a function.
