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 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 کاملStructure of LacY with an α-substituted galactoside: Connecting the binding site to the protonation site.
The X-ray crystal structure of a conformationally constrained mutant of the Escherichia coli lactose permease (the LacY double-Trp mutant Gly-46→Trp/Gly-262→Trp) with bound p-nitrophenyl-α-d-galactopyranoside (α-NPG), a high-affinity lactose analog, is described. With the exception of Glu-126 (helix IV), side chains Trp-151 (helix V), Glu-269 (helix VIII), Arg-144 (helix V), His-322 (helix X), ...
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...
