Sensor protein TorS

UniProtKB accession:  P39453

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Member of the two-component regulatory system TorS/TorR involved in the anaerobic utilization of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO). Detects the presence of TMAO in the medium and, in response, activates TorR via a four-step phosphorelay. When TMAO is removed, TorS can dephosphorylate TorR, probably by a reverse phosphorelay involving His-860 and Asp-733.
