Abstract excerpt
In Escherichia coli, the CpxRA sensor regulator system is induced by a variety of signals, including pH, osmolarity, metals and misfolded envelope proteins. Here, we analyzed the effect of the folding defective maltose binding protein MalE219 on the reconstituted Cpx signalling pathway in detail. Surprisingly, autokinase and phosphatase activities of the reconstituted CpxA-6His protein remained unaffected,...
