Protonation and sugar binding to LacY.
The effect of bulk-phase pH on the apparent affinity (K(d)(app)) of purified wild-type lactose permease (LacY) for sugars was studied. K(d)(app) values were determined by ligand-induced changes in the fluorescence of either of two covalently bound fluorescent reporters positioned away from the sugar-binding site. K(d)(app) for three different galactopyranosides was determined over a pH range fr...
متن کاملRole of protons in sugar binding to LacY.
WT lactose permease of Escherichia coli (LacY) reconstituted into proteoliposomes loaded with a pH-sensitive fluorophore exhibits robust uphill H(+) translocation coupled with downhill lactose transport. However, galactoside binding by mutants defective in lactose-induced H(+) translocation is not accompanied by release of an H(+) on the interior of the proteoliposomes. Because the pK(a) value ...
متن کاملSugar recognition by CscB and LacY.
The sucrose permease (CscB) and lactose permease (LacY) of Escherichia coli belong to the oligosaccharide/H(+) symporter subfamily of the major facilitator superfamily, and both catalyze sugar/H(+) symport across the cytoplasmic membrane. Thus far, there is no common substrate for the two permeases; CscB transports sucrose, and LacY is highly specific for galactopyranosides. Determinants for Cs...
متن کاملSugar binding induces an outward facing conformation of LacY.
According to x-ray structure, the lactose permease (LacY) is a monomer organized into N- and C-terminal six-helix bundles that form a deep internal cavity open on the cytoplasmic side with a single sugar-binding site at the apex. The periplasmic side of the molecule is closed. During sugar/H(+) symport, a cavity facing the periplasmic side is thought to open with closure of the inward-facing cy...
متن کاملBinding of the Escherichia coli response regulator CheY to its target measured in vivo by fluorescence resonance energy transfer.
In Escherichia coli chemotaxis, signaling depends on modulation of the level of phosphorylation of CheY, a small protein that couples receptors and flagellar motors. Working in vivo, we used fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) to measure the interaction of CheY approximately P with its target, FliM. Binding of CheY approximately P to FliM was found to be much less cooperative than mot...
