Fig. 5. Transport activity of DIC after reconstitution in liposomes. The sarkosyl-solubilized proteins were reconstituted into liposomes in the presence of 20 mM potassium phosphate, pH 7.2. The external substrate was removed from proteoliposomes on Sephadex G-75 columns. The transport was started by adding 0.1 mM [33P]-phosphate and terminated after 10 minutes. Finally, the external substrate was removed on Sephadex G-75 columns and the accumulation of labelled substrate in the proteoliposomes was measured. The values reported in the figure represent the means ± s.d. (n=4). WT, wild type.
