Abstract excerpt
A conserved motif, GXXX(D/E)(R/K)XG(R/K)(R/K), has been identified among a large group of evolutionarily related membrane proteins involved in the transport of small molecules across the membrane. To determine the importance of this motif within the lactose permease of Escherichia coli, a total of 28 site-directed mutations at the conserved first, fifth, sixth, eighth, ninth, and tenth positions were analyzed. A...
