WILD-TYPE STRUCTURE OF LACTOSE PERMEASE
Overview
Here we describe an x-ray structure of wild-type lactose permease (LacY), from Escherichia coli determined by manipulating phospholipid content, during crystallization. The structure exhibits the same global fold as the, previous x-ray structures of a mutant that binds sugar but cannot catalyze, translocation across the membrane. LacY is organized into two six-helix, bundles with twofold pseudosymmetry separated by a large interior, hydrophilic cavity open only to the cytoplasmic side and containing the, side chains important for sugar and H(+) binding. To initiate transport, binding of sugar and/or an H(+) electrochemical gradient increases the, probability of opening on the periplasmic side. Because the inward-facing, conformation represents the lowest free-energy state, the rate-limiting, step for transport may be the conformational change leading to the, outward-facing conformation.
