Abstract

A rapid and efficient method has been used for the purification of a Plantago major sucrose carrier from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The C-terminal fusion of a bacterial biotin acceptor domain to the carrier protein did not interfere with the targeting to the yeast plasma membrane nor with the catalytic activity of the sucrose carrier. The chimeric construct is biotinylated by yeast cells in vivo and represents the only biotinylated protein in yeast membranes. Solubilized biotinylated carrier protein binds selectively to immobilized monomeric avidin and can be eluted as pure protein with free biotin. The purified protein is functionally active and catalyzes the energy-dependent transport of sucrose into proteoliposomes.
