Functional complementation assay and expression of LilKT1 in yeast K+ uptake mutant. (A) PLY240 mutants expressing HA-yLilKT1 could not grow at low K+ concentrations. Control experiments were performed with the wild-type strain PLY232 containing the empty expression vector pGREG535. (B) HA-tagged LilKT1 was detected in the membrane fraction of PLY 240 after induction with galacatose (+). The respective organelle membrane markers, Pma1p (plasma membrane H+ ATPase), Dpm1p (dolichol phosphate mannose synthase of ER) and the Vma1p subunit of the vacuolar V-type ATPase (V1-subunit) were detected in non-induced yeast cells. Arrowheads mark the expected molecular weights. Additional protein signals in the Pma1p lane are caused by secondary antibody. 40 μg protein per lane.
