Abstract excerpt
The lactose carrier activity of Escherichia coli is inhibited by the binding of dephosphorylated glucose enzyme III. Saier et al. ((1978) J. Bacteriol. 133, 1358-1367) isolated lacY mutants that escaped this inhibition. This communication reports the cloning and sequencing of one of the Saier mutants and the isolation, cloning and sequencing of another similar mutant. Both mutations resulted in amino acid...
