CheZ: phosphatase which dephosphorylates CheY-P and thus plays an important role in E.Coli chemotaxi
This part encodes CheZ, which is a phosphatase which dephosphorylates CheY-P and causes the flagellum to rotate counterclockwise. E.coli lacking the cheZ gene cannot dephosphorylate CheY-P, tumble incessantly, and are thus nonmotile while inducing the expression of CheZ can restore motility in a CheZ knockout strain by reactivating wild-type chemotaxis.
