STRUCTURAL BASIS FOR METHYLESTERASE CHEB REGULATION BY A PHOSPHORYLATION-ACTIVATED DOMAIN
Overview
We report the x-ray crystal structure of the methylesterase CheB, a, phosphorylation-activated response regulator involved in reversible, modification of bacterial chemotaxis receptors. Methylesterase CheB and, methyltransferase CheR modulate signaling output of the chemotaxis, receptors by controlling the level of receptor methylation. The structure, of CheB, which consists of an N-terminal regulatory domain and a, C-terminal catalytic domain joined by a linker, was solved by molecular, replacement methods using independent search models for the two domains., In unphosphorylated CheB, the N-terminal domain packs against the active, site of the C-terminal domain and thus inhibits methylesterase activity by, directly restricting access to the active site. We propose that, phosphorylation ... [(full description)]
