title: The maltose-maltodextrin transport system of Escherichia coli.
abstract: The general features of the active transport system for maltose and maltodextrins are described. Two cytoplasmic membrane components have been identified with the aid of lacZ-gene fusions. One protein (MalF) is an integral membrane protein. The other protein (MalK) seems to be a peripheral membrane protein on the inner aspect of the membrane.
