mtr — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FGRAMPH1_01G04543, designated mtr on chromosome 1 of Fusarium graminearum PH-1, encodes a protein with an AA_transpt_TM domain and L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity, and is annotated to the biological process of amino acid membrane transport. Its product localises to the membrane. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to FDB cluster proteins, though this connection is not established for mtr itself. The encoded protein also contains methyltransferase-related domains (Methyltransf_16, SAM-dependent_MTases_sf) based on sequence similarity to distant relatives.
