Expression, localization and interaction of the Escherichia coli Mot A and Mot B proteins.

摘要

he MotA and MotB are inner membrane proteins involved in the energy transduction process for driving rotation of the Escherichia coli flagellar motor. These proteins have been characterized by molecular and cell biological techniques.;Previous attempts by others to overexpress motB were unsuccessful, so the normal motA motB gene configuration was placed under P;The motA gene of Escherichia coli was placed under the control of the Serratia marcescens tryptophan operon promoter. In the presence of the inducer
