type 1 periplasmic binding-protein component of an ABC system (RPA0985), involved in the active transport of lignin-derived benzoate derivative compounds, and its close homologs
This group includes RPA0985 from Rhodopseudomonas palustris and its close homologs in other bacteria. Rpa0985 is the periplasmic binding-protein component of an ABC system that is involved in the active transport of lignin-derived benzoate derivative compounds. Members of this group has high sequence similarity to members of the family of hydrophobic amino acid transporters (HAAT), such as leucine-isoleucine-valine binding protein (LIVBP).
