Conversion of a bacterial warm sensor to a cold sensor by methylation of a single residue in the presence of an attractant.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Apr 1999

Abstract excerpt

The aspartate chemoreceptor (Tar) of Escherichia coli also serves as a thermosensor, and it is very amenable to genetic and biochemical analysis of the thermosensing mechanism. Its thermosensing properties are controlled by reversible methylation of the cytoplasmic signalling/adaptation domain of the protein. The unmethylated and the fully methylated (aspartate-bound) receptors sense, as attractant stimuli,...
