Abstract excerpt
Periplasmic permeases consist of a substrate-binding receptor, located in the periplasm, and a membrane-bound complex composed of two integral membrane proteins and two nucleotide-binding proteins. The receptor interacts with the membrane-bound complex, which, upon receiving this signal, is postulated to hydrolyze ATP and translocate the substrate. We show that a class of mutations in the membrane-bound complex...
