| UniProt functional annotation for P0AE68 | |||
| UniProt code: P0AE68. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli O157:H7. | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | 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). {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion per subunit. {ECO:0000250}; | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Ptm: | Phosphorylated by CheA or acetylated by acetyl-CoA synthetase, depending on which acetate metabolism pathway is available. {ECO:0000250}. | |
