Summary Introduction

A sensory receptor involved in the transduction of chemical signal into an action potential is referred to as a chemoreceptor. They are located on the cell membrane and are capable of detecting specific chemical stimuli present in the environment. The Aer receptor is an aerotaxis receptor in E. coli, which guides the organism to specific oxygen and energy-generating niches. It is involved in the indirect sensing of the attractants.
