Effects of receptor interaction in bacterial chemotaxis.
Biophysical journal - 1 Sept 2004
Mello Bernardo A, Shaw Leah, Tu Yuhai
Abstract excerpt
Signaling in bacterial chemotaxis is mediated by several types of transmembrane chemoreceptors. The chemoreceptors form tight polar clusters whose functions are of great biological interest. Here, we study the general properties of a chemotaxis model that includes interaction between neighboring chemoreceptors within a receptor cluster and the appropriate receptor methylation and demethylation dynamics to...
