Phosphate signaling through alternate conformations of the PstSCAB phosphate transporter
Abstract Background Phosphate is an essential compound for life. Escherichia coli employs a signal transduction pathway that controls the expression of genes that are required for the high-affinity acquisition of phosphate and the utilization of alternate sources of phosphorous. These genes are only...
