Regulation of Bacillus subtilis glutamine phosphoribosylpyrophosphate amidotransferase inactivation in vivo.

abstract：:Energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporters form a large group of vitamin uptake systems in prokaryotes. They are composed of highly diverse, substrate-specific, transmembrane proteins (S units), a ubiquitous transmembrane protein (T unit), and homo- or hetero-oligomeric ABC ATPases. Biotin transporters represent a spec...
