A transmembrane hybrid-type histidine kinase in Arabidopsis functions as an osmosensor.
Water deficit and the resulting osmotic stress affect plant growth. To understand how plant cells monitor and respond to osmotic change from water stress, we isolated a cDNA from dehydrated Arabidopsis plants. This cDNA encodes a novel hybrid-type histidine kinase, ATHK1. Restriction fragment length polymorphism mapping showed that the ATHK1 gene is on chromosome 2. The predicted ATHK1 protein ...
متن کاملGUEST COMMENTARIES A Unique Sensor Histidine Kinase
Sporulation initiation in Bacillus species is controlled by an extended version of two-component signal transduction systems, termed phosphorelay (4). The cascade of His3Asp3 His3Asp phosphotransfer is typically initiated by the ATPdependent autophosphorylation of the histidine kinase domain. In this issue, Scaramozzino et al. (11) reported that a sporulation histidine kinase, BA2291, in Bacill...
متن کاملBacterial histidine kinase as signal sensor and transducer.
Adaptation to an environmental stress is essential for cell survival in all organisms, from E. coli to human. To respond to changes in their surroundings, bacteria utilize two-component systems (TCSs), also known as histidyl-aspartyl phosphorelay (HAP) systems that consist of a histidine kinase (HK) sensor and a cognate response regulator (RR). While mammals developed complex signaling systems ...
متن کاملSensory domain contraction in histidine kinase CitA triggers transmembrane signaling in the membrane-bound sensor.
Bacteria use membrane-integral sensor histidine kinases (HK) to perceive stimuli and transduce signals from the environment to the cytosol. Information on how the signal is transmitted across the membrane by HKs is still scarce. Combining both liquid- and solid-state NMR, we demonstrate that structural rearrangements in the extracytoplasmic, citrate-sensing Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS) domain of HK CitA ...
متن کاملAn essential sensor histidine kinase controlled by transmembrane helix interactions with its auxiliary proteins.
Two-component signal transduction systems with membrane-embedded sensor histidine kinases are believed to recognize environmental signals and transduce this information over the cellular membrane to influence the activity of a transcription factor to which they are mated. The YycG sensor kinase of Bacillus subtilis, containing two transmembrane helices, is subject to a complicated activity-cont...
