queT

Gene
queT
Protein
Queuosine precursor transporter QueT
Organism
Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris (strain MG1363)
Length
169 amino acids
Function
Probably a queuosine precursor-binding protein that interacts with the energy-coupling factor (ECF) ABC-transporter complex. Unlike classic ABC transporters this ECF transporter provides the energy necessary to transport a number of different substrates. The substrates themselves are bound by transmembrane, not extracytoplasmic soluble proteins.
Similarity
Belongs to the vitamin uptake transporter (VUT/ECF) (TC 2.A.88) family.
