Abstract excerpt
The active accumulation of maltose and maltodextrins by Escherichia coli is dependent on the maltose transport system. Several lines of evidence suggest that the substrate specificity of the system is not only determined by the periplasmic maltose-binding protein but that a further level of substrate specificity is contributed by the inner membrane integral membrane components of the system, MalF and MalG. We...
