Signal receiver domain; originally thought to be unique to bacteria (CheY, OmpR, NtrC, and PhoB), now recently identified in eukaroytes ETR1 Arabidopsis thaliana; this domain receives the signal from the sensor partner in a two-component systems; contains a phosphoacceptor site that is phosphorylated by histidine kinase homologs; usually found N-terminal to a DNA binding effector domain; forms homodimers
