Primary Identifier | IPR005893 | Type | Family |
Short Name | Sp_pt_ABC_ATP-bd |
description | This entry represents the spermidine/putrescine ABC transporter ATP binding subunit in bacteria and its equivalents in archaea. This transport system belong to the larger ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. Polyamines like spermidine and putrescine play vital role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and ion homeostasis. The concentration of polyamineswithin the cell are regulated by biosynthesis, degradation and transport (uptake and efflux included). |
