Abstract excerpt
Two-component systems, comprising a sensor kinase and a response regulator, are very important for bacteria to respond to stress in their environment. In alpha-proteobacteria, two such systems (ChvIG and NtrYX) help bacteria to respond to cell envelope and acid stress, respectively. In contrast to the majority of two-component systems, which do not cross talk with one another, ChvIG and NtrYX in Caulobacter are...
