FIG. 5.

Effects of ligand and adaptational modification on initial rate of methylation persist in chemoreceptor dimers isolated from interacting neighbors. Experiments, data, and curves are as described in the legend to Fig. 4, using the Tar with patterns of modification described in the legend to Fig. 3. The figures compare Tar inserted in native membrane vesicles (vesicles) in which each receptor dimer had many potentially interacting neighbors and inserted in nanodiscs at 1 dimer/disc (1 d/disc) a condition with no potentially interacting neighbors.
