A Cytoplasmic pH Sensor Redefines Gating in Bacterial Urea Channels and Acid Resistance

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Bacterial survival in acidic environments requires pH‐gated urea channels. Utilizing complementary approaches, we identify a conserved cytoplasmic glutamic acid residue as a pH sensor in UreI channels. Whereas Gram‐positive bacteria rely solely on this sensor, Gram‐negative bacteria employ a dual‐sensor mechanism with periplasmic residues, revealing a ...
