- HPT: Histidine Phosphotransfer domain, involved in signalling through a two part component systems in which an autophosphorylating histidine protein kinase serves as a phosphoryl donor to a response regulator protein; the response regulator protein is modulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of a conserved aspartic acid residue; two-component proteins are abundant in most eubacteria; In E. coli there are 62 two-component proteins involved in a variety of processes such as chemotaxis, osmoregulation, metabolism and transport 1; also present in both Gram positive and Gram negative pathogenic bacteria where they regulate basic housekeeping functions and control expression of toxins and other proteins important for pathogenesis; in archaea and eukaryotes, two-component pathways constitute a very small number of all signaling systems; in fungi they mediate environmental stress responses and, in pathogenic yeast, hyphal development. In Dictyostelium and in plants, they are involved in important processes such as osmoregulation, cell growth, and differentiation; to date two-component proteins have not been identified in animals; in most prokaryotic systems, the output response is effected directly by the RR, which functions as a transcription factor while in eukaryotic systems, two-component proteins are found at the beginning of signaling pathways where they interface with more conventional eukaryotic signaling strategies such as MAP kinase and cyclic nucleotide cascades....

- REC: Signal receiver domain; originally thought to be unique to bacteria (CheY, OmpR, NtrC, and PhoB), now recently identified in eukaroytes ETR1 Arabidopsis thaliana; this domain receives the signal from the sensor partner in a two-component systems; contains a phosphoacceptor site that is phosphorylated by histidine kinase homologs; usually found N-terminal to a DNA binding effector domain; forms homodimers....

- H-kinase_dim: Signal transducing histidine kinase, homodimeric domain. This helical bundle domain is the homodimer interface of the signal transducing histidine kinase family..... (More)
- HATPase_c: Histidine kinase-like ATPases; This family includes several ATP-binding proteins for example: histidine kinase, DNA gyrase B, topoisomerases, heat shock protein HSP90, phytochrome-like ATPases and DNA mismatch repair proteins.... (More)
- CheA_reg: CheA regulatory domain; CheA is a histidine protein kinase present in bacteria and archea. Activated by the chemotaxis receptor a histidine phosphoryl group from CheA is passed directly to an aspartate in the response regulator CheY. This signalling mechanism is modulated by the methyl accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCPs). MCPs form a highly interconnected, tightly packed array within the membrane that is organized, at least in part, through interactions with CheW and CheA. The CheA regulatory domain belongs to the family of CheW_like proteins and has been proposed to mediate interaction with the kinase regulator CheW..... (More)
