Phosphotransfer profiling: systematic mapping of two-component signal transduction pathways and phosphorelaysMichael T Laub
Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA
Methods Enzymol 423:531-48. 2007..The technique can be further extended to mapping phosphorelays and the cognate partners of histidine phosphotransferases. Here, we describe protocols and strategies for the successful implementation of this system-level technique...

Nature 444:899-904. 2006..Our results define a single integrated circuit whose components and connectivity can account for the cell cycle oscillations of CtrA in Caulobacter...
Two-component signal transduction pathways regulating growth and cell cycle progression in a bacterium: a system-level analysisJeffrey M Skerker
