Cell Wall-Associated Proteases of Streptococcus cremoris Wg2.
TL;DR: Two components of the proteolytic system, proteins A and B, have been studied in Streptococcus cremoris Wg2 by immunological methods and were clearly seen to be located at the outside of the cell wall.
Mechanism of osmotic activation of the quaternary ammonium compound transporter (QacT) of Lactobacillus plantarum.
TL;DR: The mechanism of osmotic activation of the quaternary ammonium compound transport system (QacT) and the effects of the cationic amphipath chlorpromazine are studied, which inserts into the cytoplasmic membrane and thereby influences the uptake and efflux of glycine betaine.
Membrane Topology of the C-terminal Half of the Neuronal, Glial, and Bacterial Glutamate Transporter Family
TL;DR: The membrane topology of the C-terminal half of the glutamate transporters is determined by applying the phoA gene fusion technique to the homologous bacterial glutamate transporter of Bacillus stearothermophilus.

Structural and functional properties of chromatophores and membrane vesicles from Rhodepseudomonas sphaeroides
Paul A.M. Michels,Wil N. Konings +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the intracytoplasmic structures from which the chromatophores are derived are structurally and functionally similar to (and most likely continuous with) the cytop lasmic membranes fromwhich the vesicles are derived.

Membrane-bound ATPase contributes to hop resistance of Lactobacillus brevis.
TL;DR: Observations strongly indicate that proton pumping by the membrane-bound ATPase contributes considerably to the resistance of L. brevis to hop compounds.
