bioY2

Gene
bioY2
Protein
Biotin transporter BioY2
Organism
Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris (strain MG1363)
Length
182 amino acids
Function
Probably a biotin-binding protein that interacts with the energy-coupling factor (ECF) ABC-transporter complex. Unlike classic ABC transporters this ECF transporter provides the energy necessary to transport a number of different substrates. The substrates themselves are bound by transmembrane, not extracytoplasmic soluble proteins.
Similarity
Belongs to the BioY family.
