Function of Lactose PermeaseFunction of Lactose Permease
Lactose Permease is a transmembrane protein that facilitates the passage of lactose across the phospholipid bi-layer of the cell membrane. The transport mechanism used is an active co-transport that uses the inwardly directed H+ electrochemical gradient as its driving force. As a result, the lactose is accompanied from the periplasm to the cytoplasm of the cell by an H+ proton.[1]
Lactose is a disaccharide carbohydrate found primarily in mammalian milk. It is a disaccharide composed of the monosaccharides glucose and galactose. When lactose is ingested, it is brought into cells in the digestive system by the protein Lactose Permease. Here it is broken down into its monosaccharide subunits by the enzyme lactase so it may be used in the process of cellular respiration.[2]

SMART Teams (Students Modeling A Research Topic) is a science outreach program developed by the MSOE Center for BioMolecular Modeling. In this program, teams of high school students work with a local resarch lab to design and build a physical model of a protein that is being investigated by the lab. The goal of the SMART Team program is to introduce students to the real world of scince --- as it exists in a local research lab. The development of this program was supported by grants from the NIH-NCRR SEPA program (Science Education Partnership Award) and an HHMI Precollege Science Education Award.
