'''CheA''' exists as a homodimer of 71-kDa subunits. Each monomer catalyzes an ATP-dependent ''trans''-phosphorylation of a histidine. A monomer contains five domains (P1-P5 from N- to C-terminus) connected by highly dynamic linkers of various lengths. Each domain has a distinct function.Due to the size of CheA, the solved structures available to date do not have all five domains.
