Function
MALE_ECOLI Involved in the high-affinity maltose membrane transport system MalEFGK. Initial receptor for the active transport of and chemotaxis toward maltooligosaccharides.MAMC_MAGSA Probably involved in magnetite crystal growth (Probable). The lumenal domain may bind the magnetite crystals, affecting crystal size and shape (Probable).[1] [2] [3]
