Protein Domain : IPR004746

Type:  Family Name:  Major facilitator superfamily, aromatic acid:H+ symporter family
Description:  The aromatic acid:H+ symporter family (AAHS) is classified as family 15 of the major facilitator superfamily (MFS) []. Members of the AAHS family show fairly uniform sizes (418 to 460 residues). They transport a variety of aromatic acids as well as cis,cis-muconate []. 4-hydroxybenzoate transporter (PcaK Ppu), a member of this family, has been implicated in chemotaxis, allowing the bacteria to swim up concentration gradients of its substrates []. This is the only documented case where an MFS protein apparently serves as a chemoreceptor. One of the AAHS proteins (BenK Aca) transports benzoate []. Under the transporter classification (TC) system [], this family is classified as TC number 2.A.1.15. Short Name:  MFS_AAHS
