ChvG is the sensor kinase of two component regulatory system in Agrobacterium (2).
Acidic
condition plays an important role in Agrobacterium-plant interactions
(1).Numerous
studies
have investigated the possible connection between the physiological
response to
acidic conditions and the activity of ChvG and ChvI.
Studies have shown that ChvG /ChvI two component systems
specifically get
induced in an acidic environment (1).
As
a result, there is growing consensus that the ChvG/ChvI, two-component
regulatory system, may be the primary global pH sensor in Agrobacterium
Tumefaciens and as such, serves in coordinating the expression of
acid-induced genes (2).
