Table 1 Classification of TezRs in bacteria

From: Novel prokaryotic system employing previously unknown nucleic acids-based receptors

Name of the receptor

Description of the receptor

Primary TezRs

TezR–D1

DNA-based receptors located outside the membrane; they participate in cell regulation and are stably associated with the cell surface

TezR–R1

RNA-based receptors located outside the membrane; they participate in cell regulation and are stably associated with the cell surface

Secondary TezRs

TezR–D2

DNA-based receptors located outside the membrane; they participate in cell regulation and can be easily washed out along with culture medium or matrix

TezR–R2

RNA-based receptors located outside the membrane; they participate in cell regulation and can be easily washed out along with culture medium or matrix
