Abstract excerpt

The effects of five mutations at arginines 64, 69, and 73 of the Tar protein were analyzed using swarm assays, aspartate binding in purified membranes, and methylation both in vitro and in vivo. The defects in the responses of these mutant receptors to aspartate were shown to be directly attribut...
