Bacteria with a built-in Thermometer

Researchers demonstrate for the first time that bacteria of the Yersinia genus possess a unique protein thermometer – the protein RovA. Depending on the environment of the bacteria, this protein reads the temperature for it. RovA is a multi-functional sensor which measures both the temperature of its host as well as the host's metabolic activity and nutrients.
