Protein
Intermembrane phospholipid transport system permease protein MlaE
Organism
Haemophilus influenzae (strain ATCC 51907 / DSM 11121 / KW20 / Rd)
Function
Part of the ABC transporter complex MlaFEDB, which is involved in a phospholipid transport pathway that maintains lipid asymmetry in the outer membrane by retrograde trafficking of phospholipids from the outer membrane to the inner membrane. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
Similarity
Belongs to the MlaE permease family.
