phbH

Gene
phbH
Protein
Phosphocarrier protein HPr
Organism
Cupriavidus necator (strain ATCC 17699 / H16 / DSM 428 / Stanier 337)
Length
89 amino acids
Function
General (non sugar-specific) component of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS). This major carbohydrate active-transport system catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. The phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) is transferred to the phosphoryl carrier protein HPr by enzyme I. Phospho-HPr then transfers it to the PTS EIIA domain.
Similarity
Belongs to the HPr family.
