Monitoring of external environment and ability to respond to its changes is essential for survival of all living organisms. Transmission of extracellular signals in prokaryotes is mediated mainly by two-component systems; however, genome analyses have revealed that many bacteria contain eukaryotic-type Ser/Thr protein kinases. Streptococcus pneumoniae, an important human pathogen, encodes 13 two-component systems and a single copy of eukaryotic-like Ser/Thr protein kinase gene designated stkP. Prior experiments demonstrated pleiotropic role of the transmembrane protein kinase StkP in virulence, competence, stress resistance and regulation of gene expression
