Abstract excerpt
The KdpD sensor kinase and the KdpE response regulator control the expression of the kdpFABC operon, encoding the KdpFABC high-affinity K+ transport system of Escherichia coli. Low turgor pressure has been postulated to be the environmental stimulus to express KdpFABC. KdpD has autokinase, phosphotransferase and, like many sensor kinases, response regulator (phospho-KdpE) specific phosphatase activity. To...
