Zusammenfassung: 
HAMP domains are widely abundant signaling modules. The putative mechanism of their function comprises switching between two distinct states. To unravel these conformational transitions, we apply site-directed spin labeling and time-resolved EPR spectroscopy to the phototactic receptor/transducer complex NpSRII/NpHtrII. We characterize the kinetic coupling of NpHtrII to NpSRII along with the activation period of the transducer and follow the transient conformational signal. The observed transient shift towards a more compact state of the HAMP domain upon light-activation agrees with structure-based calculations. It thereby validates the two modeled signaling states and integrates the domain's dynamics into the current model. (C) 2014 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V.
