HAMP domain conformers that propagate opposite signals in bacterial chemoreceptors.

HAMP domain conformers that propagate opposite signals in bacterial chemoreceptors.

HAMP domains are signal relay modules in >26,000 receptors of bacteria, eukaryotes, and archaea that mediate processes involved in chemotaxis, pathogenesis, and biofilm formation. We identify two HAMP conformations distinguished by a four- to two-helix packing transition at the C-termini that sen...
