Abstract
The active accumulation of L‐arabinose by arabinose induced cultures of Escherichia coli is mediated by 2 independent transport mechanisms. One, specified by the gene locus araE, is membrane bound and possesses a relatively “low affinity.” The other, specified in part by the genetic locus araF, contains as a functional component the L‐arabinose binding protein and functions with a “high affinity” for the substrate. The L‐arabinose binding protein has been purified, partially characterized, crystallized, and sequenced.

The genes encoding the leucine binding proteins in E coli have been cloned and their DNA sequences have been determined. One of the binding proteins (LIV-BP) binds leucine, isoleucine, valine, threonine, and alanine, whereas the other (LS-BP) binds only the D-and L-isomers of leucine. These proteins
