CheY "tumbling" chemotaxis coding sequence
This part codes for CheY, a protein used by E. coli for chemotaxis. Increased concentrations of CheY has been shown to make E. coli tumble more.
Usage and Biology
CheY is phosphorolated by CheA-P to become CheY-P. CheY-P then binds to the motor of flagella in E. coli, making it spin counter clockwise more. This makes the organism tumble more, as opposed to going straight.
