Abstract excerpt
The lactose transporter from Streptococcus thermophilus catalyses the symport of galactosides and protons. The carrier domain of the protein harbours the contact sites for dimerization, and the individual subunits in the dimer interact functionally during the transport reaction. As a first step towards the elucidation of the mechanism behind the cooperation between the subunits, regions involved in the dimer...
