Mg2+ required Streptococcus pyogenes MGAS2221
Mg2+ required, activates CovR phosphorylation at high concentration. High-Mg2+ conditions increase phosphorylated CovR levels dependent on the presence of an intact CovS protein without influencing CovR production Streptococcus pyogenes MGAS10870

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction a group A streptococci strain selectively deficient in CovS phosphatase activity has a distinct transcriptome relative to that of its parental strain. Inactivation of CovS in the serotype M1 background results in a greater decrease in phosphorylated CovR levels and a greater increase in the transcript levels of CovR-repressed genes than does CovS inactivation in a serotype M3 strain Streptococcus pyogenes MGAS10870

physiological function two-component gene regulatory systems (TCSs) are a major mechanism by which bacteria respond to environmental stimuli and are critical to infectivity. The control of virulence regulator/sensor kinase (CovRS) TCS is central to the virulence of the major human pathogen group A Streptococcus (GAS). In the system, the histidine kinase CovS primarily serves to phosphorylate CovR, thereby resulting in the repression of virulence factor-encoding genes. Both CovS kinase and phosphatase activities influence the CovR phosphorylation status. Serotype M1 GAS strains have high rates of spontaneous mutations in covS during invasive GAS infection, thus providing a link between TCS molecular function and the epidemiology of deadly bacterial infections Streptococcus pyogenes MGAS10870
