Abstract: Mal11 catalyzes proton-coupled maltose transport across the plasma membrane of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We used structure-based design of mutants and a kinetic analysis of maltose transport to determine the energy coupling mechanism of transport. We find… read more here.

Abstract: A major challenge in the research of transport proteins is to understand how single amino acid residues contribute to their structure and biological function. Amino acid substitutions that result in a selective advantage in adaptive… read more here.
