K-P+ and K+P- mutations
06.16.09 email from Mike: As for the EnvZ mutants, here's the list we've compiled from the literature. Keep in mind that K+P- really means a shift in the balance of kinase and phosphatase activities and similarly for the K-P+ alleles. None of them is perfectly "clean" in eliminating one of the activities:
K+P-
- V241G
- G240E
- S242D
- P248Q
- T247R
- Q283P
- Y287D
- L288P
K-P+
- A239T
- N343K
- F390L
- H243A
