Acidic substituents for Ala-177 (helix 6) or Tyr-236 (helix 7) in LacY cause effects on sugar recognition and cosubstrate coupling that are stereotypical of neutral substituents. Thus, helices 6 and 7 are probably oriented to produce little side-chain contact with the low dielectric lipid bilayer at positions 177 and 236.
乳糖通透酶(LacY)中丙氨酸-177(螺旋6)或酪氨酸-236(螺旋7)的酸性取代基对糖识别和共底物偶联产生的影响与中性取代基的典型影响相同。因此,螺旋6和螺旋7的取向可能使得在177和236位与低介电常数的脂质双层几乎没有侧链接触。
