Gene
cscB
Protein
Sucrose permease
Organism
Escherichia coli
Length
415 amino acids
Function
Responsible for transport of sucrose into the cell, with the concomitant import of a proton (symport system) (PubMed:7535526, PubMed:22106930). Can also transport maltose, fructose or lactulose, but not glucose, lactose or melibiose (PubMed:19294451, PubMed:7535526, PubMed:22106930). The substrate specificity is directed toward the fructofuranosyl moiety of the substrate (PubMed:22106930).
