Identification of domain interfaces in the E. coli mannitol permease

(2001) Montfort, Bart Augustinus van

The Escherichica coli mannitol permease or enzyme IImtl (Ellmtl) catalyses the uptake and concomitant phosphorylation of mannitol Ellmtl has a complex architecture with each subunit of the dimer consisting of three domains (A, B, and C). Protein and domain interactions are needed to transfer the phosphoryl group from the A to the B domain, but also to accomplish the actual phosphorylation of the carbohydrate by the B domain, while bound to the C domain. In addition, the energy for the translocation step catalyzed by the membrane-embedded C domain comes from a conformational coupling interaction between the C and a phosphorylated B domain. Identification of the B/C domain and dimer interface should, therefore, assist in the elucidation of the energy-coupling mechanism and the conformational interaction in Ellmtl. Unfortunately, high-resolution structures are not available for the B and C domain of Ellmtl. Thus a variety of other approaches must be employed to u!
nravel the details of these interactions. Some of them will be presented in this thesis.
