Name: yfgG Updated annotation (from data): Negative regulator of nickel and cobalt uptake (YfgG) Rationale: YfgG is important for resisting cobalt and nickel stress, as is its ortholog in Klebsiella (BWI76_RS21010). Furthermore, overexpression of yfgG confers increased resistance to cobalt (PMID:30659179). YfgG has strong negative cofitness with the Mg/Ni/Co transporter corA, as does its ortholog in Klebsiella. YfgG is a small putative membrane protein and might bind corA to inhibit it or reduce its abundance (by analogy to the magnesium transporter MtgE and the small membrane protein MtgS that binds and stabilizes MtgS.)
