Identification
Name:Probable N-acetylneuraminic acid outer membrane channel protein nanC
Synonyms:
  • NanR-regulated channel
  • Porin nanC
Gene Name:nanC
Enzyme Class:Not Available
Biological Properties
General Function:Involved in oligosaccharide transporting porin activity
Specific Function:Outer membrane channel protein allowing the entry of N- acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac or sialic acid) into the bacteria (Probable). NanC proteins form high-conductance channels which are open at low membrane potentials and which have a weak anion selectivity
Cellular Location:Cell outer membrane
