Abstract excerpt
Cysteine-scanning mutagenesis was performed from Ser-130 to Leu-160 in the fourth transmembrane domain (TM4) of the Na+/H+ antiporter NhaA from Helicobacter pylori to determine the topology of each residue and to identify functionally important residues. All of the mutants were based on cysteine-less NhaA (Cys-less NhaA), which functions very similarly to the wild-type protein, and were expressed at a level...
