Here, the authors describe two novel regulators, CJJ81176_0275 and CJJ81176_0276 (designated as CheP and CheQ), which specifically activate the transcription of the chemotaxis core genes cheV, cheA and cheW in Campylobacter jejuni and they are also essential for chemotactic responses.[CheP, CheQ]
Title: The novel regulators CheP and CheQ control the core chemotaxis operon cheVAW in Campylobacter jejuni.

The present study has uncovered how FlhF influences C. jejuni flagella biosynthesis, which will be helpful in understanding the C. jejuni flagella biosynthetic pathway and bacterial flagellation in general. [FlhF]
Title: Could FlhF be a key element that controls Campylobacter jejuni flagella biosynthesis in the initial assembly stage?

CprRS is the first C. jejuni regulatory system shown to control genes related to the cell envelope, the first line of interaction between pathogen and changing environments.[CprR, CprS]

The regulons of the Cjj81176_1484 histidine kinase and the Cjj81176_1483 response regulator contain many common genes, suggesting that these proteins likely form a cognate two-component regulatory system.[Cjj81176_1484, Cjj81176_1483]

Authors demonstrate that the nucleotide binding motifs of both proteins CstE and CstP are essential for their function in transformation of Campylobacter jejuni and and interaction of CtsP with CtsX, an integral membrane protein.[CstE, CstP, CstX]
