Two Component Regulatory Systems in Bacteria
1) Histidine kinase sensor
- often in the cell membrane
- detects environmental signal and auto phosphorylates
histidine kinase phosphorylates itself in response to
receiving a signal , then transfer that phosphate to
the second component Cresponse regulator )
21 Response Regulator
-
cytoplasmic protein that is phosphorylated by and activated
by ahistidine kinase sensor
- usually a DNA binding transcription factor that activates a
transcriptional network Cmany genes -often called a regular)
transcription factors recruit RNA polymerase to promoters that aren't strong enough on their own
regular : a group of genes that is activated Ctranscribed )by one thing Ctranscription factor )
TCS Example
-
an example of a two component system is the Pho Pl Ph OR TCS that responds
to low phosphate levels
- this is a two component system from E. coli
-Ph op gets phosphorylated , activates transcription , which activates many genes
in a transcriptional network
this helps phosphate get into the cell ,
even
in alow phosphate environment
- there are about
50 two component

Document Summary

Histidine kinase sensor often in the cell membrane detects environmental signal and auto phosphorylates histidine kinase phosphorylates itself in response to receiving a signal , then transfer that phosphate to the second component c response regulator ) 21 response regulator cytoplasmic protein that is phosphorylated by and activated by a histidine kinase sensor usually a dna binding transcription factor that activates a transcriptional network. C many genes - often called a regular ) transcription factors recruit. Rna polymerase to promoters that aren"t strong enough on their own regular : a group of genes that is activated. Tcs example an example of a two component system is the pho pl ph or tcs that responds to low phosphate levels this is a two component system from e . coli.
