Abstract excerpt

ScrY, an outer membrane channel of enteric Gram-negative bacteria, which confers to the bacteria the rapid uptake of sucrose through the outer membrane was reconstituted into lipid bilayer membranes and the current noise was investigated in the open and in the carbohydrate-induced closed state of...
