Abstract excerpt
The ribose-binding protein (RBP) of Escherichia coli, located in the periplasm, binds to ribose and mediates transport and chemotaxis. The regions on the tertiary structure of RBP that interact with the membrane permease, an ABC transporter, were genetically probed by screening a mutation using the chimeric receptor Trz. Trz is a hybrid protein between the periplasmic domain of chemoreceptor Trg and the...
