Abstract

A kinetic model is presented based on the simplest plausible mechanism for bacterial binding protein‐dependent transport. The transport phenotypes of the 18 variant arabinose‐binding proteins analyzed by Kehres and Hogg (1992, Protein Sci. 1, 1652–1660) (wild type and 17 mutants) are interpreted to mean that in wild‐type arabinose uptake the forward transport rate (k~for~) greatly exceeds the dissociation rate (k~und~) of a binding protein docked with the AraG:AraH membrane complex, and that k~for~ dominance is preserved in all of the binding protein surface mutants. The assumptions and predictions of the model are consistent with existing data from other periplasmic transport systems.

A mechanism for heavy chain binding protein (BiP)-and protein disul"de isomerase (PDI)mediated protein folding and assembly has been proposed. It considers BiP chaperoning action and PDI catalytic activity. A kinetic model has been developed based on the proposed mechanism. The model was used for qu

A rapid and simple method for assaying the binding activity of thiamine-binding protein is described. By this assay method, the binding characteristics of rice bran thiamine-binding protein have been evaluated with [14C]thiamine as ligand. Analysis of these data by Scatchard plot resulted in linear
