	• The <scene name='57/571407/Cytoplasmic_receptor/1'>chemoreceptor</scene> (1QU7) – also called methyl-accepting protein, MCP – is a ~380Å long, alpha helical homo-dimer with many domains. The <scene name='57/571407/Cytoplasmic_receptor/2'>signaling domain</scene> at the cytosplasmic tip is where both CheW and CheA interact and bind.		• The <scene name='57/571407/Cytoplasmic_receptor/1'>chemoreceptor</scene> (1QU7) – also called methyl-accepting protein, MCP – is a ~380Å long, alpha helical homo-dimer with many domains.

	• CheA is a large 5-subdomain (P1-P5) histidine kinase that auto-phosphorylates depending on it's interaction with the receptor and localized concentrations of the response regulator protein CheY.		• <scene name='57/571407/Chea_p3p4p5/1'>CheA</scene> (1B3Q shows P3-P5 as a homodimer) is a large 5-subdomain (P1-P5) histidine kinase that auto-phosphorylates depending on it's interaction with the receptor and localized concentrations of the response regulator protein CheY.
