Sequencing and characterization of a gene cluster encoding the enzymes for L-rhamnose metabolism in Escherichia coli.

abstract：:MalK is a peripheral cytoplasmic membrane protein that has multiple activities in Escherichia coli. It associates with integral cytoplasmic membrane proteins MalF and MalG to form the maltose transport complex (MalFGK), a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily of proteins. In addition, MalK participates ...
