The Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae chemoreceptor protein F (PscF) periplasmic sensor domain: cloning, purification and X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Nitrate- and nitrite-sensing (NIT) domains are found associated with a wide variety of bacterial receptors, including chemoreceptors. However, the structure of a chemoreceptor-associated NIT domain has not yet been characterized. Recently, a chemoreceptor named PscF was identified from the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv.
