thiZ

Gene
thiZ
Protein
Formylaminopyrimidine import ATP-binding protein ThiZ
Organism
Bacillus halodurans (strain ATCC BAA-125 / DSM 18197 / FERM 7344 / JCM 9153 / C-125)
Length
249 amino acids
Function
Participates in a thiamine pyrimidine salvage pathway as part of the ABC transporter complex ThiXYZ involved in the import of thiamine degradation products such as the formylaminopyrimidine N-formyl-4-amino-5-aminomethyl-2-methylpyrimidine (FAMP). Is likely responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
Similarity
Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily.
