J.B. Stock, A.J. Ninfa, A.M. Stock, "Protein phosphorylation and regulation of adaptive responses in bacteria," Microbiological Reviews, 53:450-90, 1989. Jeff Stock (Princeton University, Princeton, N.J.): "Although research on signal transduction has traditionally focused on eukaryotic cells, prokaryotes also respond to environmental signals. Recent studies, reviewed in this article, show that a single bacterial cell such as Escherichia coli may have as many as 50 different receptor kinases a
