A "Tet(L)-12" version of Tet(L), a tetracycline efflux protein with 14 transmembrane segments (TMS), was constructed by deletion of two central TMS. Tet(L)-12 catalyzed Na+/H+ antiport and antiport with K+ as a coupling ion as well as or better than wild-type Tet(L) but exhibited no tetracycline-Me2+/H+ antiport in Escherichia coli vesicles.
Tet(L)是一种具有14个跨膜区段(TMS)的四环素外排蛋白,通过缺失两个中央TMS构建了一种“Tet(L)-12”版本的Tet(L)。Tet(L)-12催化Na⁺/H⁺反向转运以及以K⁺作为偶联离子的反向转运,其效果与野生型Tet(L)相当或更好,但在大肠杆菌囊泡中未表现出四环素-Me²⁺/H⁺反向转运。
