Lysine decarboxylase mutants of Escherichia coli: evidence for two enzyme forms.

Abstract:

:Mutants with reduced lysine decarboxylase activity were isolated from an Escherichia coli polyamine auxotroph. These mutants could not produce induced enzyme, showing only a very low level of an apparently constitutive form. Both enzyme forms could be demonstrated in the parental strain.

  • Outer membrane proteins of Escherichia coli. VII. Evidence that bacteriophage-directed protein 2 functions as a pore.

    abstract::Protein 1, a major protein of the outer membrane of Escherichia coli, has been shown to be the pore allowing the passage of small hydrophilic solutes across the outer membrane. In E. coli K-12 protein 1 consists of two subspecies, 1a and 1b, whereas in E. coli B it consists of a single species which has an electrophor...
