From PII signaling to metabolite sensing: a novel 2-oxoglutarate sensor that details PII-NAGK complex formation.
The widespread PII signal transduction proteins are known for integrating signals of nitrogen and energy supply and regulating cellular behavior by interacting with a multitude of target proteins.The PII protein of m1917a1 kelly helmet the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus forms complexes with the controlling enzyme of arginine synthesis, N-ac
