Abstract excerpt
The purine-cytosine permease from Saccharomyces cerevisiae mediates the active transport through the plasma membrane of adenine, hypoxanthine, guanine and cytosine using the proton electrochemical potential difference as an energy source. Analysis of the activity of strains mutated in a hydrophilic segment (371-377) of the polypeptidic chain has shown the involvement of this segment in the maintenance of the...
