Term Name: phosphorelay signal transduction system
Synonyms: histidyl-aspartyl phosphorelay
Definition: A conserved series of molecular signals found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes; involves autophosphorylation of a histidine kinase and the transfer of the phosphate group to an aspartate that then acts as a phospho-donor to response regulator proteins.
