Abstract excerpt
Trg mediates chemotaxis of Escherichia coli to galactose and ribose by recognition of respective, sugar-occupied binding proteins. Although both attractants act through one transmembrane receptor, maximal response is approximately 50% greater to ribose. This phenomenon was investigated by mutatio...
