The ascorbate transporter of Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2003

Zhang Zhongge, Aboulwafa Mohammad, Smith Meghan H, Saier Milton H

Abstract excerpt

The sgaTBA genes of Escherichia coli encode a putative 12-transmembrane alpha-helical segment (12 TMS) transporter, an enzyme IIB-like protein and an enzyme IIA-like protein of the phosphotransferase system (PTS), respectively. We show that all three proteins as well as the energy-coupling PTS proteins, enzyme I and HPr, are required for the anaerobic utilization and uptake of L-ascorbate in vivo and its...
