A direct-sensing galactose chemoreceptor recently evolved in invasive strains of Campylobacter jejuni

Some virulent strains of Campylobacter jejuni possess a putative chemotaxis receptor, Tlp11, of unknown function. Here the authors show that Tlp11 specifically interacts with galactose and is required for the chemotaxis response of C. jejunito galactose.
