摘要
In vivo cross-linking between native cysteines in the Aer receptor of Escherichia coli showed dimer formation at the membrane anchor and in the putative HAMP domain. Dimers also formed in mutants that did not bind flavin adenine dinucleotide and in truncated peptides without a signaling domain and part of the HAMP domain.
