ATP-binding cassette domain of the metal-type transporters.
This family includes transporters involved in the uptake of various metallic cations such as iron, manganese, and zinc. The ATPases of this group of transporters are very similar to members of iron-siderophore uptake family suggesting that they share a common ancestor. The best characterized metal-type ABC transporters are the YfeABCD system of Y. pestis, the SitABCD system of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, and the SitABCD transporter of Shigella flexneri. Moreover other uncharacterized homologs of these metal-type transporters are mainly found in pathogens like Haemophilus or enteroinvasive E. coli isolates.
