name: transcriptional regulatory protein yedW
def: "A protein that is a translation product of the Escherichia coli K-12 yedW gene or a 1:1 ortholog thereof. YedV and yedW are predicted to function as a histidine kinase/response regulator pair of a two-component signal transduction system. The cytoplasmic histidine kinase domain of YedV was purified and showed autocatalytic self-phosphorylation activity. A small amount of trans-phosphorylation of YedW and non-cognate response regulators was also observed." [EcoCyc:G7057-MONOMER]
