MMPL-Family Proteins in Bacteria, Protozoa, Fungi, Plants and Animals: A Bioinformatics and Structural Investigation

2021-10-03

Abstract excerpt

Lipid transporters play an important role in most if not all organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. For example, in Mycobacterium tuberculosis , the trehalose monomycolate transporter MmpL3 is involved in cell wall biosynthesis, while in humans, cholesterol transporters are involved in normal cell function as well as in disease. Here, using structural and bioinformatics information, we propose that there are...
