FEATURES

DESCRIPTION

Also known as PCTA_PSEAE, pctA. Chemotactic-signal transducers respond to changes in the concentration of attractants and repellents in the environment, transduce a signal from the outside to the inside of the cell, and facilitate sensory adaptation through the variation of the level of methylation. Major receptor that responds to all naturally occurring L-amino acids, except L-Gln and L-Asp. Also involved in repellent responses to trichloroethylene (TCE), chloroform and methylthiocyanate. Monomer in the absence and presence of ligands.
