CheW is a coupling protein linking chemotaxis receptor arrays to CheA-associated signalling complexes. Removing it from a reconstituted system can test its functional requirement, while a physical-interface assay addresses direct contacts.
CheA is the signaling enzyme that promotes phosphorylation of CheY and CheB in the chemotaxis feedback regulation pathway.
CheB is an enzyme that reverses receptor methylation in chemotaxis; its regulation contributes to negative feedback.
CheR is an enzyme that catalyzes receptor methylation in chemotaxis, contributing to signaling adaptation.
The phosphorylation state of the protein CheY connects receptor signaling to motor behavior in Escherichia coli.
