| UniProt functional annotation for P07363 | |||
| UniProt code: P07363. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. CheA is autophosphorylated; it can transfer its phosphate group to either CheB or CheY. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=ATP + protein L-histidine = ADP + protein N-phospho-L- histidine.; EC=2.7.13.3; | |
| Subunit: | An in vitro complex of CheW/CheA(L)/CheA(S) in a 1:1:1 ratio increases the autophosphorylation of CheA and is required for the binding of CheY, the phosphorylation substrate. This complex accounts for 10% of the total number of molecules. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2068106}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. | |
| Domain: | May have three functional domains: one for interaction with CheB and CheY, a second for regulating phosphorylation and controlling the stability of the protein, and a third for receiving input signals regulating CheA activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2832069}. | |
