Abstract excerpt
Two-component systems play a central part in bacterial signal transduction. Phosphorelay mechanisms have been linked to more robust and ultra-sensitive signalling dynamics. The molecular machinery that facilitates such a signalling is, however, only understood in outline. In particular the functional relevance of the dimerization of a non-orthodox or hybrid histidine kinase along which the phosphorelay takes...
