Motile bacteria use chemotaxis to migrate towards environments that are favorable for
growth and survival. The signaling pathway that mediates this behavior is largely conserved …

Chemoreceptors in bacteria detect a variety of signals and feed this information into
chemosensory pathways that represent a major mode of signal transduction. The five …

Chemosensory system is the most complex, specialized mode of signal transduction in
bacteria and archaea. It is composed of several core and auxiliary protein components that …

Bacteria sense and respond to their environment through a highly conserved assembly of
transmembrane chemoreceptors (MCPs), the histidine kinase CheA, and the coupling …

In contrast to Escherichia coli, a model organism for chemotaxis that has 5 chemoreceptors
and a single chemosensory pathway, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 has a much more …

In most signal transduction systems, coupling or scaffold proteins establish crucial
connections between receptors and histidine kinases. These connections are important for …

Chemotaxis is crucial for the survival of bacteria, and the signaling systems associated with
it exhibit a high level of evolutionary conservation. The architecture of the chemosensory …

Campylobacter jejuni is a bacterial pathogen that is a common cause of enteritis in humans.
We identified a previously uncharacterized type of sensory domain in the periplasmic region …

Amino acids are important nutrients and also serve as signals for diverse signal transduction
pathways. Bacteria use chemoreceptors to recognize amino acid attractants and to navigate …

The bacterial chemotaxis system is one of the best-understood cellular pathways and serves
as the model for signal transduction systems. Most chemotaxis research has been …
