Functional proteins are also involved in high-affinity Ni transport for hydrogenase synthesis. One example is the nikABCDE gene cluster of Escherichia coli 20). NikA is a periplasmic Ni-binding protein. 

In bacteria, accumulation of substrates against a concentration gradient can occur through two main classes of transport systems (see [30] for a summary). The prototype of the first class of transporters is the /3-galactoside permease of Escherichia coli (see [31]). It is a relatively simple system involving only a single membrane-bound protein. It catalyzes a lactose-H symport. Other transporters... 

Induced mutagenesis in Escherichia coli is an active process involving proteins with DNA replication, repair, and recombination functions. The available evidence suggests that mutations are generated at sites where DNA has been damaged and that they arise via an error-prone repair activity. In an attempt to understand what specific contributions to mutagenesis are made by DNA lesions, we have studied the mutational specificity of some carcinogens, such as benzo[a]pyrene and aflatoxin, whose chemical reactions with DNA are...

Protein synthesis in prokaryotes is in principle the same as in eukaryotes. However, as the process is simpler and has been better studied in prokaryotes, the details involved in translation are discussed here and on p. 252 using the example of the bacterium Escherichia coli. 

In 1990, the first plant-made vaccines were performed via expression of Streptococcus mutans surface protein A in transgenic tobacco, followed by oral immunization of mice with the same plant material (Fischer and Emans, 2000). This transgenic plant material was later shown to successfully induce an antibody response through a demonstration that serum from immunized mice could react with intact S. mutans. Plants were also developed that expressed Escherichia coli enterotoxin B subunit (LT-B) and that exhibited successful inducement of both mucosal and serum antibody responses (Tacket, 2005). These initial experiments led to a cornucopia of studies involving generations of plant-made vaccines and therapeutic proteins and their applications in medicine.
