Abstract excerpt
Three tyrosine residues but no tryptophan exist in the ribose-binding protein (RBP) of Escherichia coli. In order to assess the contribution of each tyrosine to the fluorescence properties, mutants were constructed by site-directed mutagenesis to replace tyrosines at 32, 115, and 261 by phenylalanines. The mutant proteins were functional as confirmed by in vivo tactic response and by their ability to bind to...
