Abstract:
:Accumulation of proline and glycine betaine occurs via three transport systems in Staphylococcus aureus (Pourkomailian and Booth 1992, 1994). A 35 kDa membrane protein was identified to be missing from a mutant, BP108, which lacks activity of the low affinity osmolyte transport system. The loss in activity of the low affinity transport system may be linked to the loss in expression of the 35 kDa membrane protein as a result of transposon insertion.
