Structural Insight into Partner Specificity and Phosphoryl Transfer in Two-Component Signal Transduction
The chief mechanism used by bacteria for sensing their environment is based on two conserved proteins: a sensor histidine kinase (HK) and an effector response regulator (RR). The signal transduction process involves highly conserved domains of both proteins that mediate autokinase, phosphotransfer, and phosphatase activities whose output is a finely tuned RR phosphorylation level. Here, we repo...
متن کاملTwo-component signal transduction.
Most prokaryotic signal-transduction systems and a few eukaryotic pathways use phosphotransfer schemes involving two conserved components, a histidine protein kinase and a response regulator protein. The histidine protein kinase, which is regulated by environmental stimuli, autophosphorylates at a histidine residue, creating a high-energy phosphoryl group that is subsequently transferred to an ...
متن کاملA developmentally regulated two-component signal transduction system in Chlamydia.
Two-component systems allow bacteria to adapt to changing environmental conditions and may induce developmental changes necessary for survival. Chlamydia trachomatis alternates between two distinct developmental forms, each optimized for survival in a separate niche. Transcriptional regulation of development is not understood. The C. trachomatis genome sequence revealed a single pair of genes (...
متن کاملAn essential two-component signal transduction system in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
The bacterial two-component signal transduction systems regulate adaptation processes and are likely to play a role in Mycobacterium tuberculosis physiology and pathogenesis. The previous initial characterization of an M. tuberculosis response regulator from one of these systems, mtrA-mtrB, suggested its transcriptional activation during infection of phagocytic cells. In this work, we further c...
متن کاملTwo-component signal transduction in Enterococcus faecalis.
Enterococci are gram-positive constituents of the normal human microflora, typically colonizing the intestinal tract and skin (34, 47). However, these organisms are capable of causing disease as opportunistic pathogens, mainly in immunocompromised patients (35, 58). The problem of enterococcal infection has been aggravated by the emergence in the past decade of multiple antibiotic resistance, w...
