Genetic and biochemical dissection of a HisKA domain identifies residues required exclusively for kinase and phosphatase activities.

Two-component signal transduction systems, composed of histidine kinases (HK) and response regulators (RR), allow bacteria to respond to diverse environmental stimuli. The HK can control both phosphorylation and subsequent dephosphorylation of its cognate RR. The majority of HKs utilize the HisKA su...
