Molecular Determinants for Differential Activation of the <i>Vibrio parahaemolyticus</i> Bile Acid Receptor
2022-09-02
Abstract excerpt
Bile acids are important for digestion of food and for antimicrobial activity. Pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus senses bile acids via the co-component signal transduction system receptor VtrA/VtrC, an obligate membrane heterodimer. Intestinal bile acids bind to the periplasmic domain of the VtrA/VtrC complex, activating a DNA-binding domain in VtrA that induces expression of another membrane protein, VtrB. VtrB...
