Abstract excerpt
In the nitrate-responsive, homodimeric NarX sensor, two cytoplasmic membrane alpha-helices delimit the periplasmic ligand-binding domain. The HAMP domain, a four-helix parallel coiled-coil built from two alpha-helices (HD1 and HD2), immediately follows the second transmembrane helix. Previous com...
