Two-component signal-transduction systems (TCSs) of bacteria are considered to form an intricate signal network to cope with various environmental stresses. One example of such a network in Escherichia coli is the signal transduction cascade from the EvgS/EvgA system to the PhoQ/PhoP system, where activation of the EvgS/EvgA system promotes expression of PhoP-activated genes. As a factor connecting this signal transduction cascade, we have identified a small inner membrane protein (65 aa), B1500 ...[more]
