MFS transporter
BT1 family
Members of this family are transmembrane proteins. Several are Leishmania putative proteins that are thought to be pteridine transporters. One such protein Swiss:Q25272, previously termed (and is still annotated as) ORFG, was shown to encode a biopterin transport protein using null mutants [1], thus being subsequently renamed BT1. The significant similarity of ORFG/BT1 to Trypanosoma brucei ESAG10 (a putative transmembrane protein and another member of this family) was previously noted [2]. This family also contains five putative Arabidopsis thaliana proteins of unknown function. In addition, it also contains two predicted prokaryotic proteins (from the cyanobacteria Synechocystis and Synechococcus). [1]. 10589984.
