Abstract
Nitrogen-fixing rhizobial bacteroids import dicarboxylates by using the DctA transporter. G114 of DctA is highly conserved. A G114D mutant is inactive, but DctA with a small amino acid (G114A) or a helix disrupter (G114P) retains significant activity. G114 probably interacts with other membrane helices in stabilizing a substrate-binding pocket.Entities:
