Abstract excerpt
Acidic residues which are found on transmembrane segments within the lactose permease may play an important role in H+ and/or sugar recognition. To examine the functional roles of Glu-269 and Glu-325, we have constructed a variety of amino acid substitutions (e.g. aspartate, glycine, alanine, serine, or glutamine) via site-directed mutagenesis. At position 269, all mutations appear to have a detrimental effect on...
