Helicobacter pylori senses bleach (HOCl) as a chemoattractant using a cytosolic chemoreceptor.

The gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori requires a noncanonical cytosolic chemoreceptor transducer-like protein D (TlpD) for efficient colonization of the mammalian stomach. Here, we reconstituted a complete chemotransduction signaling complex in vitro with TlpD and the chemotaxis (Che) proteins Ch...
