Abstract excerpt
The membrane topology of subunit alpha from the Escherichia coli F1F0-ATP synthase was studied using a gene fusion technique. Fusion proteins linking different amino-terminal fragments of the alpha subunit with an enzymatically active fragment of alkaline phosphatase were constructed by both random transposition of TnphoA and site-directed mutagenesis. Those proteins with high levels of alkaline phosphatase...
