Chemotaxis protein CheY

UniProtKB accession:  P0A2D5

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. In its active (phosphorylated or acetylated) form, CheY exhibits enhanced binding to a switch component, FliM, at the flagellar motor which induces a change from counterclockwise to clockwise flagellar rotation (By similarity). Shows autophosphatase activity which is enhanced by CheZ (PubMed:9837737).
