Complete alanine scanning of the Escherichia coli RbsB ribose binding protein reveals residues important for chemoreceptor signaling and periplasmic abundance

Abstract The Escherichia coli RbsB ribose binding protein has been used as a scaffold for predicting new ligand binding functions through in silico modeling, yet with limited success and reproducibility. In order to possibly improve the success of predictive modeling on RbsB, we study here the influ...
