Comments In bacteria this gene has been subject to horizontal gene transfer, subsequent differential gene loss and insertions/deletions near the N-terminus. The ancestral version is most likely the shortest one (group I of PubMed 11102698) which has conserved cysteine residues that in the case of Thermus thermophilus have been shown to bind zinc. We have chosen to use the identifier RS14Z in bacteria for the zinc-binding subfamily (MF_01364). The group II proteins have an approximately 23 amino acid insertion and the group III proteins have an approximately 38 residue insertion; we do not distinguish between them however (this family, MF_00537); members of this subfamily do not usually possess the conserved cysteine residues. Many bacteria possess more than one copy of RS14, usually one of which is able to bind zinc. Interestingly, in the proteobacteria (Pseudomonadota, which usually have the group III form) the acquired form is found within the spc operon, signifying gene replacement took place within the operon. The proteins in Legionella species and SALRD match this family but have the conserved residues necessary to bind zinc; whether they do so is unknown.
