gvpA2

Gene
gvpA2
Protein
Probable gas vesicle structural protein 2
Organism
Streptomyces coelicolor (strain ATCC BAA-471 / A3(2) / M145)
Length
170 amino acids
Function
Gas vesicles are small, hollow, gas filled protein structures that are found in several microbial planktonic microorganisms. They allow the positioning of the organism at the favorable depth for growth. GvpA type proteins form the essential core of the structure (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the gas vesicle protein type A family.
