Motile bacteria like Escherichia coli cells are attracted to and repelled by signals in their surroundings due to transmembrane chemoreceptor proteins, i.e: their direction of movement is controlled by this mechanism. The stimulus information travels through the receptor molecule, shifting the dynamic properties of adjoining structural elements. The section of the<scene name='78/782579/Serreceptor/3'> Ser Receptor</scene> found in the cytoplasmic membrane is a helical-bundle structure signaling molecule. | Motile bacteria like Escherichia coli cells are attracted to and repelled by signals in their surroundings due to transmembrane chemoreceptor proteins, i.e: their direction of movement is controlled by this mechanism.
