TorS histidine kinase activates the TMAO reductase (Tor) pathway when sensing trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) in the environment. This entry represents the N-terminal portion of the periplasmic sensor domains of TorS.
This domain is found in Sensor protein TorS from Escherichia coli and similar proteins predominantly found in proteobacteria. TorS is a sensor histidine kinase that forms a complex with TorT, and TorR, to form the trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) reduct ...
This domain is found in Sensor protein TorS from Escherichia coli and similar proteins predominantly found in proteobacteria. TorS is a sensor histidine kinase that forms a complex with TorT, and TorR, to form the trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) reductase (Tor) pathway, which plays a role in the regulation of this terminal electron receptor in anaerobic respiration. This domain folds into a four-helical bundle [1-3].
Periplasmic binding proteins and sugar binding domain of LacI family
This family includes the periplasmic binding proteins, and the LacI family transcriptional regulators. The periplasmic binding proteins are the primary receptors for chemotaxis and transport of many sugar based solutes. The LacI family of proteins ...
This family includes the periplasmic binding proteins, and the LacI family transcriptional regulators. The periplasmic binding proteins are the primary receptors for chemotaxis and transport of many sugar based solutes. The LacI family of proteins consist of transcriptional regulators related to the lac repressor. In this case, generally the sugar binding domain binds a sugar which changes the DNA binding activity of the repressor domain (Pfam:PF00356).
