Characterization of opposing responses to phenol by Bacillus subtilis chemoreceptors

G. A. Bodhankar, P. Tohidifar, Z. L. Foust, G. W. Ordal, C. Rao

This study identifies McpA and McpC/HemAT as chemoreceptors for phenol in B. subtilis, showing that phenol is sensed as an attractant and repellent through different domains of McpA.

The unconventional cytoplasmic sensing mechanism for ethanol chemotaxis in Bacillus subtilis

P. Tohidifar, G. A. Bodhankar, S. Pei, C. K. Cassidy, H. E. Walukiewicz, G. W. Orodal, P. J. Stansfeld, C. Rao

This paper identifies an unconventional ethanol sensing mechanism in Bacillus subtilis where ethanol binds the cytoplasmic signaling domain of McpB and the myoglobin-like sensing domain of HemAT.

Four chemoreceptors govern bidirectional pH taxis in Bacillus subtilis

P. Tohidifar, M. J. Plutz, G. W. Ordal, C. Rao

This paper identifies four chemoreceptors in Bacillus subtilis that mediate bidirectional pH taxis, with specific residues determining acid or base sensing.
