Kinetic mechanism of DNA polymerase I (Klenow fragment): identification of a second conformational change and evaluation of the internal equilibrium constant.

abstract：:In halophilic archaea the photophobic response is mediated by the membrane-embedded 2:2 photoreceptor/-transducer complex SRII/HtrII, the latter being homologous to the bacterial chemoreceptors. Both systems bias the rotation direction of the flagellar motor via a two-component system coupled to an extended cytoplasmi...
