Abstract excerpt
The in vivo membrane assembly of the mannitol permease, the mannitol Enzyme II (IImtl) of the Escherichia coli phosphotransferase system, has been studied employing molecular genetic approaches. Removal of the N-terminal amphiphilic leader of the permease and replacement with a short hydrophobic...
