Abstract excerpt
Synthetic peptides corresponding to the N-terminal 23 and 22 residues, respectively, of two integral plasma membrane proteins of Escherichia coli, namely the mannitol- and glucitol-specific permeases of the bacterial sugar phosphotransferase system, were incorporated into single planar phospholipid bilayers supported on germanium plates. Polarized attenuated total reflection infrared spectra were recorded, and...
