Flagellar Locomotion in E. coli
Description:
In an ever-changing environment, it is essential that organisms are able to sense these changes and to respond appropriately. Possible responses include alterations in gene expression and/or active movement towards or away from an environment. Most sensory pathways in eukaryotic organisms rely on serine, threonine or tyrosine protein kinases, whereas the most common sensory pathways in prokaryotes use a HAP (Histidine-Aspartate Phosphorelay) system. HAP systems have at least two components-a dimeric HPK (Histidine Protein Kin...
