Positions are the last amino acid in the sequence of prePulD before the insertion site.
N, N domain; S, S domain.
Yields and multimerization are classified into four categories, as illustrated in Fig. 2.
Complementation tests were performed in maltose-induced cultures of PAP7447 (ΔpulD in chromosome). The results are averages of at least three independent assays.
