lacY Antibody

1. Binding kinetics of alpha-galactopyranoside homologs with fluorescent aglycones of different sizes or shapes were determined with Escherichia coli LacY by FRET from Trp151 in the LacY binding site to the fluorophores. LacY specificity is directed toward the galactopyranoside ring. The pathway for the substrate entering from the periplasmic side is wider than the calculated pore diameters in periplasmic open X-ray struc... PMID: 29602806
2. Glu325 exhibits a pKa of 10.5 +/- 0.1 that is insensitive to the presence of galactopyranoside. Protonation of Glu325 specifically is required for effective sugar binding to LacY PMID: 28154138
3. Data indicate that the nanobodies (Nbs) bind stoichiometrically with nanomolar affinity to the periplasmic face of lactose permease (LacY) primarily to the C-terminal six-helix bundle. PMID: 27791182
4. Molecular dynamics simulations indicated that the deprotonation of Glu325 induced the opening of the periplasmics side and partial closure of the cytoplasmic side of LacY, while protonation of the Glu269 caused a stable cross-domain salt-bridge (Glu130-Arg344) and completely closed the cytoplasmic side. PMID: 27090495
5. Double-replacement mutants of conserved Gly-Gly pairs bind galactoside with affinities 10-20-fold higher than that of the pseudo-WT or WT LacY. Moreover, site-directed alkylation of a periplasmic Cys replacement indicates that the periplasmic cavity becomes readily accessible in the double-replacement mutants. PMID: 27438891
6. WT LacY in complex with the great majority of the Nbs exhibits varied increases in access of sugar to the binding site with an increase in association rate constants (kon) of up to approximately 50-fold (reaching 10(7) M(-1) s(-1)). PMID: 25512549

8. Data indicate that opening of the periplasmic cavity not only limits access of sugar to the binding site of lactose permease (LacY) but also controls the rate of closing of the cytoplasmic cavity. PMID: 24872451
9. Exploit chemical denaturation to determine the unfolding free energy of LacY and employ Trp residues as site-specific thermodynamic probes. Trp LacY mutants are created with the individual Trps situated at mirror image positions on the two LacY domains. PMID: 24530957
10. findings are consistent with the interpretation that the electrogenic reaction induced by sugar binding is due to rearrangement of charged residues in LacY and that this reaction is blocked by mutation of each member of the Tyr236/Glu269/His322 triad PMID: 24152072
11. Trp replacements for tightly interacting Gly-Gly pairs in LacY stabilize an outward-facing conformation. PMID: 23671103

16. Results indicate that LacY exhibits specificity directed toward the galactopyranosyl moiety of the glycoside to be transported. PMID: 22106930
17. LacY is highly dynamic, and binding of a galactopyranoside causes closing of the inward-facing cavity with opening of a complementary outward-facing cavity. PMID: 21995338
18. analysis of the interaction between helices V and I and its role in the transport mechanism of LacY protein PMID: 21730060
19. Data show that MTS-gal is bound covalently, forming a disulfide bond with MTS-gal is bound covalently, forming a disulfide bond with Cys122 LacY and positioned between R144 and W151. PMID: 21593407
20. topology of both CscB & PheP permeases is dependent on PE. However, CscB topology is governed by thermodynamic balance between opposing lipid-dependent electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. PMID: 21454589
21. Results describe a structural model of LacY generated by swapping the conformations of inverted-topology repeats identified in its two domains. PMID: 21315728
22. Ser53, Gln60, and Phe354 are determined to be important in sugar transport during the periplasmic-open stage of the sugar transport cycle and the sugar is found to undergo an orientational change in order to escape the protein lumen. PMID: 20875429
23. LacY exhibits uphill transport and native conformation of periplasmic domain P7 when expressed in a mutant in which phosphatidylcholine completely replaces phosphatidylethanolamine PMID: 20696931
24. Electrogenic reactions accompanying downhill lactose/H(+) symport catalyzed by the lactose permease of Escherichia coli (LacY) have been assessed using solid-supported membrane-based electrophysiology with improved time resolution. PMID: 20568736
25. demonstrate that sugar binding induces virtually the same global conformational change in LacY whether the protein is in the native bacterial membrane or is solubilized and purified in detergent. PMID: 20457922
26. Data report the insertion of E. coli lactose permease in supported lipid bilayers of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (POPE) and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol (POPG), in biomimetic molar proportions. PMID: 20096263
27. Together with results from previous mutagenesis and cross-linking studies, these findings lead to a model in which replacement of Asp68 blocks a conformational transition involving helices II and IV that is important for opening the periplasmic cavity. PMID: 20043916
28. analysis of sugar recognition by the LacY lactose permease of Escherichia coli PMID: 15364943
29. LacY activity is dependent on subtle interactions between the helices, and mutations that disrupt interactions between helix IV and loop 6-7 or between helices II and IV also rescue transport in the cysteine154glycine mutant. PMID: 15909981
30. reactivity of single-Cys mutants in helices I, III, VI, and XI of lactose permease with N-ethylmaleimide or methanethiosulfonate ethylsulfonate was studied in membrane vesicles. Most Cys replacements react with membrane-permeant alkylating agent NEM. PMID: 16566592
31. Functional analyses of mutants in the homologous key residues provide strong evidence that they play a similar critical role in the mechanisms of CscB and LacY. PMID: 16574149

37. The results provide direct support for the argument that transport via LacY involves opening and closing of a large periplasmic cavity. PMID: 18319336
