zinT/yodA | BacMet ID: BAC0457Code for: Binding protein
Family: calycin superfamily. ZinT familySequence: FASTA
Cross-database IDs: Link
Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12)Location: Chromosome
Compound: Cadmium (Cd), Zinc (Zn)Description: Metal-binding protein (Cadmium-induced protein) ZinT; Function as a periplasmic zinc chaperone or mediate direct transport of zinc from the periplasm to the cytoplasm under zinc-limited conditions. Binds zinc with high affinity, and can also bind cadmium, mercury or nickel. Preferentially binds Zn2+ over Cd2+. Contains one high affinity metal binding site, and can bind additional metal ions at other sites; Repressed by Zur
Length (amino acid): 216
