The Unconventional Cytoplasmic Sensing Mechanism for Ethanol Chemotaxis in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Bacillus subtilis</named-content>

ABSTRACT Motile bacteria sense chemical gradients using chemoreceptors, which consist of distinct sensing and signaling domains. The general model is that the sensing domain binds the chemical and the signaling domain induces the tactic response. Here, we investigated the unconventional sensing mech...
