Two-component signaling pathways allow bacteria to sense and respond to environmental changes, yet the sensory mechanisms of many remain poorly understood. In the pathogen <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>, the DbfRS two-component system controls the biofilm lifecycle, a critical process for environmental persistence and host colonization. Here, we identified DbfQ, a small periplasmic protein encoded adjacent to <i>dbfRS</i>, as a direct modulator of pathway activity. DbfQ directly binds the sensory domain ...[more]
