Chemotaxis in Bacillus subtilis requires either of two functionally redundant CheW homologs.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 May 1994

Rosario M M, Fredrick K L, Ordal G W, Helmann J D

Abstract excerpt

We have characterized mutants in a novel gene of Bacillus subtilis, cheV, which encodes a protein homologous to both CheW and CheY. A null mutant in cheV is only slightly defective in capillary and tethered cell assays. However, a double mutant lacking both CheV and CheW has a strong tumble bias, does not respond to addition of attractant, and shows essentially no accumulation in capillary assays. Thus, CheV and...
