| Type: | Family | Name: | Nucleoside-specific channel-forming protein, Tsx-like |
| Description: | The tsx gene of Escherichia coliencodes an outer membrane protein, Tsx, which constitutes the receptor for colicin K and Bacteriophage T6, and functions as a substrate-specific channel for nucleosides and deoxy-nucleosides []. The protein contains 294 amino acids, the first 22 of which are characteristic of a bacterial signal sequence peptide. The putative mature form of Tsx contains 272 residues with a calculated Mr of31418. The Tsx sequence shows an even distribution of charged residues and lacks extensive hydrophobic stretches []. Tsx shows no significant similarities to the channel-forming proteins OmpC, OmpF, PhoE and LamB from the E. coli outer membrane.This entry also contains related proteins of unknown function. | Short Name: | Channel_Tsx-like |
