Internal Sense of Direction: Sensing and Signaling from Cytoplasmic Chemoreceptors

Abstract: SUMMARY Chemoreceptors sense environmental signals and drive chemotactic responses in Bacteria and Archaea . There are two main classes of chemoreceptors: integral inner membrane and soluble cytoplasmic proteins. The latter were identified more recently than integral membrane chemoreceptors and have been studied much less thoroughly. These cytoplasmic chemoreceptors are the subject of this review. Our analysis determined that 14% of bacteri… Show more

“…These studies, however, were done in wild-type cells that possess multiple chemoreceptors. Our work shows that a soluble chemoreceptor can be sufficient to organize a signaling complex, consistent with the observation that some prokaryotes have only soluble chemoreceptors (1). Polar localization of chemoreceptors is achieved using a variety of mechanisms, including stochastic self-assembly, the use of polar landmark proteins, and ParA orthologues (52).…”

“…Cytoplasmic chemoreceptors are relatively understudied but represent 14% of bacterial and 43% of archaeal chemoreceptors (1). As a group, cytoplasmic chemoreceptors are reported to mediate tactic responses to diverse conditions, including to increased cellular energy stores (2,3), redox conditions (4,5), and metabolites (6), although significant gaps remain in our understanding of what they sense and how they function (1). One such cytoplasmic chemoreceptor is Helicobacter pylori TlpD.…”
