CC -!- FUNCTION: Chemotactic-signal transducers respond to changes in the
CC concentration of attractants and repellents in the environment,
CC transduce a signal from the outside to the inside of the cell, and
CC facilitate sensory adaptation through the variation of the level of
CC methylation. Major receptor that responds to all naturally occurring L-
CC amino acids, except L-Gln and L-Asp. Also involved in repellent
CC responses to trichloroethylene (TCE), chloroform and methylthiocyanate
CC (PubMed:16233808, PubMed:23650915, PubMed:8522505, PubMed:9353923).
CC Also mediates chemotaxis to histamine, but does not bind histamine
CC (PubMed:30425146). In addition, binds the quorum-sensing signal
CC autoinducer 2 (AI-2), thus inducing chemotaxis toward AI-2 and biofilm
CC formation (PubMed:33097715). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16233808,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:23650915, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30425146,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:33097715, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8522505,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:9353923}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer in the absence and presence of ligands.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23650915}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell inner membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass
CC membrane protein {ECO:0000255}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The ligand binding region binds directly to 17 L-amino acids.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23650915}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Mutant is defective in taxis toward 17 amino
CC acids, including Gly, L-Ser, L-Thr and L-Val. Mutant shows also
CC decreased chemotactic responses to TCE, chloroform and
CC methylthiocyanate (PubMed:16233808, PubMed:8522505, PubMed:9353923).
CC Deletion of pctA, pctB and pctC abolishes chemotaxis to 5 mM histamine,
CC but significant chemotaxis is observed at a concentration range between
CC 500 nM and 500 uM (PubMed:30425146). The pctABC-tlpQ deletion mutant is
CC devoid of histamine chemotaxis over the entire concentration range (50
CC nM to 50 mM) (PubMed:30425146). Deletion of the gene significantly
CC reduces chemotaxis to AI-2 (PubMed:33097715). The deletion mutant does
CC not show significant reduction in swarming or immobilization near
CC epithelial wounds, but the pctABC triple deletion mutant shows a
CC significant reduction in chemotaxis and immobilization along wounds of
CC human cystic fibrosis airway epithelial cells (PubMed:27031335).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16233808, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27031335,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:30425146, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33097715,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8522505, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9353923}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: PctA has a broad ligand range and responds to most of
CC the proteinogenic amino acids, whereas PctB and PctC have a much
CC narrower range and show strong ligand preference for L-glutamine and
CC gamma-aminobutyrate, respectively. These receptors are paralogs: pctA
CC gene duplication in the common ancestor of the genus Pseudomonas led to
CC pctC, whereas pctB originated through another, independent pctA
CC duplication. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:31964737}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyl-accepting chemotaxis (MCP) protein
CC family. {ECO:0000305}.
