Abstract excerpt
Chemotaxis, a means for motile bacteria to sense the environment and achieve directed swimming, is controlled by flagellar rotation. The primary output of the chemotaxis machinery is the phosphorylated form of the response regulator CheY (P-CheY). The steady-state level of P-CheY dictates the direction of rotation of the flagellar motor. The chemotaxis signal in the form of P-CheY is terminated by the phosphatase...
