The substrate binding reaction of the proline carrier was investigated in nonenergized conditions using cytoplasmic membrane vesicles prepared from the proline carrier-overproducing strain MinS/ pLC4 -45 of Escherichia coli K12. The binding activity specifically required both alkaline cations (X+), Na+ and Li+, and protons. The Na+-dependent binding activity was dependent on the proline carrier, which is the product of the putP gene, and was not affected by ionophores and energy transduction inhibitors. The parameters of proline binding were determined by double reciprocal plots in reaction media with various combinations of Na+ and H+ concentrations. The apparent dissociation constant was greatly affected by the Na+ and H+ concentrations of the medium and could be expressed as a combination of the reciprocals of the Na+ and H+ concentrations, while the maximum number of binding sites remained constant. The characteristics of proline binding to the carrier can be explained by a mechanism in which the unloaded carrier forms a carrier/H+/X+ (CH+X+) complex by a random equilibrium and only the CH+X+ complex binds substrate in nonenergized conditions, as proposed for the Na+/H+/glutamate symport carrier of E. coli B ( Fujimura , T., Yamato , I., and Anraku , Y. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 1954-1959).
