Abstract RcsC, RcsB, and RcsA were first identified as a sensor kinase, a response
regulator, and an auxiliary regulatory protein, respectively, regulating the genes of capsular …

The defining feature of the Hsp40 chaperone family is a∼ 70-amino-acid-residue signature,
termed the J domain, that is necessary for orchestrating interactions with its Hsp70 …

Translation of the stationary phase sigma factor RpoS is stimulated by at least two small
RNAs, DsrA and RprA. DsrA disrupts an inhibitory secondary structure in the rpoS leader …

The Bae, Cpx, Psp, Rcs, and σE pathways constitute the Escherichia coli signaling systems
that detect and respond to alterations of the bacterial envelope. Contributions of these …

Bacteria are often found associated with surfaces as sessile bacterial communities called
biofilms, and the formation of a biofilm can be split up into different stages each requiring the …

Molecular chaperones are highly conserved in all free‐living organisms. There are many
types of chaperones, and most are conveniently grouped into families. Genome sequencing …

This map is an update of the edition 9 map by Berlyn et al.(MKB Berlyn, KB Low, and KE
Rudd, p. 1715–1902, in FC Neidhardt et al., ed., Escherichia coli and Salmonella: cellular …

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the molecular basis of Hsp70 chaperone
machines. Particular emphasis is given to the DnaK system of Escherichia coli as it is the …

The Rcs phosphorelay is composed of the sensor kinase, RcsC, the HPt-domain protein
RcsD and the response regulator, RcsB. In this review we discuss the role of the Rcs …

The Rcs phosphorelay is a complex signaling pathway found in many, but not all, members
of the Enterobacteriaceae. The complexity of this pathway is due to the direct involvement of …
