UniProt functional annotation for Q1GBI8

UniProt code: Q1GBI8.

Organism: Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (strain ATCC 11842 / DSM 20081 / BCRC 10696 / JCM 1002 / NBRC 13953 / NCIMB 11778 / NCTC 12712 / WDCM 00102 / Lb 14).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Lactobacillales; Lactobacillaceae; Lactobacillus.
 
Function: Transmembrane (T) component of an energy-coupling factor (ECF) ABC-transporter complex. Unlike classic ABC transporters this ECF transporter provides the energy necessary to transport a number of different substrates. {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01461}.
 
Subunit: Forms a stable energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporter complex composed of 2 membrane-embedded substrate-binding proteins (S component), 2 ATP-binding proteins (A component) and 2 transmembrane proteins (T component). {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01461}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004651, ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01461}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004651, ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01461}. Membrane {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004141}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004141}.
Similarity: Belongs to the energy-coupling factor EcfT family. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00005660, ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01461}.
