Description (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) EIISgc
Comments (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) SgcABC, a putative PTS permease, belongs to the functional superfamily
of the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent, sugar transporting
phosphotransferase system (PTS). The PTS transports and simultaneously
phosphorylates its sugar substrates in a process called group
translocation. SgcABC presumably takes up an exogenous sugar,
releasing the phosphate ester into the cell cytoplasm in preparation
for metabolism [3][4][5] . Expression of the sgc operon in
which the encoding genes are found has not been studied.
