摘要：Mutations in the lacY gene of Escherichia coli have been used to analyze the functional organization of lactose permease. Deletions suggest that the NH2 terminus of lactose permease is not essential and can be replaced by residues of the cytoplasmic enzyme beta-galactosidase. Negative dominant mutations in the lacY gene can be explained by the assumption that membrane-associated lactose permease is active as a dimer or oligomer. The map positions of these mutations and other point mutations that lower or alter the sugar specificity define regions of lactose permease involved in sugar or proton binding and transport.
