Short Name | MalF-like |
description | The maltose/maltodextrin transportsystem of Escherichia coli/Salmonella consists of the periplasmic maltose-binding protein, MalE, the pore-forming subunits MalF and MalG, and a homodimer of the nucleotide-binding subunit, MalK [].This entry represents MalF, and similar proteins. The second periplasmic loop of MalF (MalF-P2) binds to MalE and is involved in activation of the MalFGK2-E complex by inducing structural changes in maltose-bound MalE []. MalF-P2 is also responsible for substrate recognition []. |
