Abstract excerpt
The VirA protein of Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a transmembrane sensory kinase that phosphorylates the VirG response regulator in response to chemical signals released from plant wound sites. VirA contains both a two-component kinase module and, at its carboxyl terminus, a receiver module. We previously provided evidence that this receiver module inhibited the activity of the kinase module and that inhibition...
