The restoration of pre-stimulus levels of the chemotactic response regulator, CheY-P, is important for allowing bacteria to respond to new environmental stimuli. The members of this family, CheC, CheX, CheA and FliY are CheY-P phosphatase [1,2]. CheC appears to be primarily involved in restoring normal CheY-P levels, whereas FliY seems to act on CheY-P constitutively. CheD enhances the activity of CheC 5-fold, which is normally relatively low [1,2]. In some cases, the region represented by this entry is present as multiple copies.
