Protein Domain : Carbohydrate ABC transporter substrate-binding, CPR0540 IPR022387

Type  Family
Description  Members of this protein are the substrate-binding protein of a predicted carbohydrate transporter operon, together with permease subunits of ABC transporter homology families. This substrate-binding protein frequently co-occurs in genomes with a family of disaccharide phosphorylases, , suggesting that the molecule transported will include beta-D-galactopyranosyl-(1->3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and related carbohydrates. Members of this family are sporadically strain by strain, often in species with a human host association, including Propionibacterium acnes and Clostridium perfringens (protein CPR_0540, which gives its name to the group), and Bacillus cereus. Bacterial high affinity transport systems are involved in active transport of solutes across the cytoplasmic membrane. Most of the bacterial ABC (ATP-binding cassette) importers are composed of one or two transmembrane permease proteins, one or two nucleotide-binding proteins and a highly specific periplasmic solute-binding protein. In Gram-negative bacteria the solute-binding proteins are dissolved in the periplasm, while in archaea and Gram-positive bacteria, their solute-binding proteins are membrane-anchored lipoproteins [ , ].
