Abstract excerpt
The co-transport of uracil and protons through the plasma membrane of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is mediated by a specific permease encoded by the FUR4 gene. The uracil permease is a multi-spanning membrane protein that follows the secretory pathway to the plasma membrane. Recent experimental data led to the proposal of a two-dimensional model of its topology. A spontaneous mutant corresponding to the...
