nanC N-acetylneuraminate outer membrane channel [Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655] - Gene

Summary

Gene symbol: nanC
Gene description: N-acetylneuraminate outer membrane channel
Primary source: ASAP:ABE-0014136
Locus tag: b4311
See related: ECOCYC:G7921
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage: Bacteria; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as: ECK4302; yjhA
Summary: In the absence of porins OmpF and OmpC (in an ompR mutant), NanC is required for the utilization of N-acetylneuraminic acid as a sole carbon source. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG12389]. Sequence similarity suggests that NanC is a member of the OmpG Porin (OmpG) family. nanC (yjhA) is the first gene in the yjhATS operon. [More information is available at EcoCyc: G7921].
