Preferred Label : Histidine Kinase;
MeSH definition : A member of the transferase superfamily of proteins. In the activated state, protein-histidine
kinase autophosphorylates at a histidine residue, subsequently transferring high-energy
phosphoryl groups to an aspartate residue of the response-regulator domain, which
results in a conformational shift in the effector domain. Histidine kinases mediate
signal transduction in a wide range of processes involving cellular adaptation to
environmental stress.;
