Observed outcome · Related strain

lacY deletion lowers the ONPG readout

Removing lacY from an MG1655 lacI-deletion background lowered intact-cell ONPG hydrolysis. Substrate transport changed the readout even though lacZ remained.

Study strain: MG1655 derivative with lacI and lacY deleted

Conditions: Envelope-integrity reporter assay; ONPG access to intracellular beta-galactosidase is the relevant measurement.

Gene function · Related strain

Lactose transport

LacY is a lactose/proton symporter that brings lactose and other galactosides into the cell.

Study strain: K-12 MG1655

Conditions: Transport is distinct from intracellular substrate breakdown.

NCBI Gene: lacY (b0343)
