This project involves using a DNA tetrahedron as a scaffold for the Tar chemoreceptor complex ''in vitro''. In this model, receptor dimers are attached at three vertices of the DNA tetrahedron to make the native trimer of dimers structure seen ''in vivo''. At the other end of the receptor, two proteins are shown: CheA, a kinase, shown in dark blue, and CheW, a coupling protein, shown in cyan. | This project involves using a DNA tetrahedron as a scaffold for the Tar chemoreceptor complex ''in vitro''.
