Abstract excerpt
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters couple ATP binding and hydrolysis to the translocation of allocrites across membranes. Two shared nucleotide-binding sites (NBS) participate in this cycle. In asymmetric ABC pumps, only one of them hydrolyzes ATP, and the functional role of the other remains unclear. Using a drug-based selection strategy on the transport-deficient mutant L529A in the transmembrane domain of...
