Protein
Divalent metal cation transporter MntH
Organism
Bacillus subtilis (strain 168)
Function
H(+)-stimulated, divalent metal cation uptake system. Involved in manganese uptake. Can probably also transport cadmium, cobalt, copper and zinc, but not iron. May be the predominant transporter of manganese during logarithmic phase growth.
Similarity
Belongs to the NRAMP family.
