Abstract excerpt
Tracking ligand-induced conformational changes through transmembrane sensory proteins remains a challenge in signal transduction research. Our study followed propagation of stimulus signals through a bacterial transmembrane chemoreceptor (Tsr) that controls a cytoplasmic signaling kinase (CheA). We marked relay elements in the ∼200-Å long cytoplasmic four-helix bundle signaling domain with amino acid replacements...
