| Type: | Family | Name: | ABC/ECF transporter, transmembrane component |
| Description: | ECF (energy-coupling factor) transporters are a subgroup of ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporters involved in the uptake of vitamins and micronutrients in prokaryotes []. ECF transporters are protein complexes consisting of a conserved module (two peripheral ATPases and the integral membrane protein EcfT) and a non-conserved integral membrane protein responsible for substrate specificity (S-component) []. This entry represents the transmembrane component from a number of ECF transporters, including cobalt-specific transporter CbiQ, and nickel-specific transporter NikQ []. It also includes uncharacterised eukaryotic proteins. | Short Name: | ABC/ECF_trnsptr_transmembrane |
