Interaction between maltose-binding protein and the membrane-associated maltose transporter complex in Escherichia coli.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Aug 1992

Dean D A, Hor L I, Shuman H A, Nikaido H

Abstract excerpt

Active transport of maltose in Escherichia coli requires the presence of both maltose-binding protein (MBP) in the periplasm and a complex of MalF, MalG, and MalK proteins (FGK2) located in the cytoplasmic membrane. Earlier, mutants in malF or malG were isolated that are able to grow on maltose in the complete absence of MBP. When the wild-type malE+ allele, coding for MBP, was introduced into these...
