Abstract excerpt
The CckA-ChpT-CtrA phosphorelay is central to the regulation of the cell cycle in Caulobacter crescentus. The three proteins are conserved in Alphaproteobacteria, but little is known about their roles in most members of this class. Here, we characterized the system in Sphingomonas melonis. We found that the transcription factor CtrA is the master regulator of flagella synthesis genes, the hierarchical...
