Abstract The general stress response (GSR) protects bacteria from a wide range of stressors. In Alphaproteobacteria , GSR activation is coordinated by HWE/HisKA2 family histidine kinases (HKs), which can exhibit non-canonical structure and function. For example, while most light-oxygen-voltage sensor-containing HKs are light activated dimers, the Rubellimicrobium thermophilum RT-HK has inverted “dark on, off” signaling logic with tunable monomer/dimer equilibrium. Here, we further...
