Identification of active site residues by site-directed mutagenesis of delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase from Pseudomonas putida biotype B.

abstract：:The CheA kinase is a central protein in the signal transduction network that controls chemotaxis in Escherichia coli. CheA receives information from a transmembrane receptor (e.g., Tar) and CheW proteins and relays it to the CheB and CheY proteins. The biochemical activities of CheA proteins truncated at various dista...
