Abstract excerpt
Several genes homologous to the methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCPs) of Escherichia coli have been cloned and characterized from the Gram-positive bacterium, Bacillus subtilis. Sequence analysis reveals four large open reading frames, designated mcpA, mcpB, tlpA, and tlpB, each encoding a predicted 72-kDa protein. These proteins exhibit strong homology to chemoreceptors from several organisms, although...
