Abstract
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.
