Ascomycota of their hosts. Owing to their long evolutionary history, the Ascomycota have evolved the capacity to break down almost every organic substance. Unlike most organisms, they are able to use their own enzymes to digest plant biopolymers such as cellulose or lignin. Collagen, an abundant structural protein in animals, and keratin—a protein that forms hair and nails—, can also serve as food sources. Unusual examples include "Aureobasidium pullulans", which feeds on wall paint, and the kerosene fungus "Amorphotheca resinae", which feeds on aircraft fuel (causing occasional problems for the airline industry), and may sometimes block fuel pipes.

HspQ protein domain could occurs through binding of YccV itself to fully or hemimethylated DNA. In addition, studies have identified the "yccV" gene as one of three insertion sites in mini-Tn10 which suppress dnaA46 thermosensitivity. This protein domain is thought to have a SH3-like barrel structure. Additionally, the structure of a hypothetical protein in this family has been solved and it forms a beta sheet structure with a terminating alpha helix. HspQ forms a stable homodimer in solution and can form homomultimers consisting of about four monomers. The theoretical molecular mass of the HspQ protein were calculated to be 11.8 kDa. It is
