The K(+)-efflux system, KefC, in Escherichia coli: genetic evidence for oligomeric structure.

Molecular membrane biology - 1 Jan 2000

Douglas R M, Ritchie G Y, Munro A W, McLaggan D, Booth I R

Abstract excerpt

KefC is a glutathione-gated K(+)-efflux system that is widespread in Gram-negative bacteria and which plays a role in the protection of cells from the toxic effects of electrophilic reagents, such as N-ethylmaleimide (NEM). The KefC gene from Escherichia coli has been cloned and the DNA sequenced. A number of kefC mutants that affect K+ retention by the KefC system have been isolated and all retain activation by...
