Major Facilitator Superfamily; The Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) is a large and diverse group of secondary transporters that includes uniporters, symporters, and antiporters. MFS proteins facilitate the transport across cytoplasmic or internal membranes of a variety of substrates including ions, sugar phosphates, drugs, neurotransmitters, nucleosides, amino acids, and peptides. They do so using the electrochemical potential of the transported substrates. Uniporters transport a single substrate, while symporters and antiporters transport two substrates in the same or in opposite directions, respectively, across membranes. MFS proteins are typically 400 to 600 amino acids in length, and the majority contain 12 transmembrane alpha helices (TMs) connected by hydrophilic loops. The N- and C-terminal halves of these proteins display weak similarity and may be the result of a gene duplication/fusion event. Based on kinetic studies and the structures of a few bacterial superfamily members, GlpT (glycerol-3-phosphate transporter), LacY (lactose permease), and EmrD (multidrug transporter), MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement. Bacterial members function primarily for nutrient uptake, and as drug-efflux pumps to confer antibiotic resistance. Some MFS proteins have medical significance in humans such as the glucose transporter Glut4, which is impaired in type II diabetes, and glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT), which causes glycogen storage disease when mutated.

Synaptic vesicle 2-related protein (SVOP) and related proteins of the Major Facilitator Superfamily; This subfamily is composed of synaptic vesicle 2 (SV2)-related protein (SVOP), SVOP-like protein (SVOPL), and similar proteins. SVOP is a transporter-like nucleotide binding protein that localizes to neurotransmitter-containing vesicles. Like SV2, SVOP is expressed in all brain regions, with highest levels in cerebellum, hindbrain and pineal gland. Studies with knockout mice suggets that SVOP may perform a subtle function that is not necessary for survival under normal conditions, since mice lacking SVOP are viable, fertile, and phenotypically normal. SVOP and SVOPL share structural similarity to the solute carrier family 22 (SLC22), a large family of organic cation and anion transporters. The SVOP-like subfamily belongs to the Metazoan Synaptic Vesicle Glycoprotein 2 (SV2) and related small molecule transporter family (SV2-like) of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins. MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of transporters; Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2 (SV2) is a transporter-like integral membrane glycoprotein, with 12 transmembrane regions, expressed in vertebrates and is localized to synaptic and endocrine secretory vesicles. Three isoforms have been identified, SV2A, SV2B, and SV2C. SV2A and SV2B are widely expressed in the brain, while SV2C is more restricted to evolutionarily older brain. SV2 isoforms have been shown to be critical for the proper function of the central nervous system.

BoNT/A blocks neurotransmitter release by cleaving synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kD (SNAP-25) within presynaptic nerve terminals. It is unclear how SV2A is involved in correct SV function, but it has been suggested to either act as a transporter or a regulator of exocytosis by mediating Ca2+ dynamics. SV2A has been identified as the molecular target of the antiepileptic drug levetiracetam (LEV). Its expression is decreased in patients with epilepsy and in epileptic animal models. SV2A belongs to the Metazoan Synaptic Vesicle Glycoprotein 2 (SV2) and related small molecule transporter family (SV2-like) of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins.

H(+)-myo-inositol cotransporter and similar transporters of the Major Facilitator Superfamily; This subfamily is composed of myo-inositol/inositol transporters and similar transporters from vertebrates, plant, and fungi. The human protein is called H(+)-myo-inositol cotransporter/Proton myo-inositol cotransporter (HMIT), or H(+)-myo-inositol symporter, or Solute carrier family 2 member 13 (SLC2A13). HMIT is classified as a Class 3 GLUT (glucose transporter) based on sequence similarity with GLUTs, but it does not transport glucose. It specifically transports myo-inositol and is expressed predominantly in the brain, with high expression in the hippocampus, hypothalamus, cerebellum and brainstem.

GLUTs, also called Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporters (SLC2A), are a family of proteins that facilitate the transport of hexoses such as glucose and fructose. There are fourteen GLUTs found in humans; they display different substrate specificities and tissue expression. They have been categorized into three classes based on sequence similarity: Class 1 (GLUTs 1-4, 14); Class 2 (GLUTs 5, 7, 9, and 11); and Class 3 (GLUTs 6, 8, 10, 12, and HMIT). Insect Tret1-1 is a low-capacity facilitative transporter for trehalose that mediates the transport of trehalose synthesized in the fat body and the incorporation of trehalose into other tissues that require a carbon source. GLUT proteins are comprised of about 500 amino acid residues, possess a single N-linked oligosaccharide, and have 12 transmembrane segments. They belong to the Glucose transporter -like (GLUT-like) family of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins. MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Major Facilitator Superfamily; The Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) is a large and diverse group of secondary transporters that includes uniporters, symporters, and antiporters. MFS proteins facilitate the transport across cytoplasmic or internal membranes of a variety of substrates including ions, sugar phosphates, drugs, neurotransmitters, nucleosides, amino acids, and peptides. They do so using the electrochemical potential of the transported substrates. Uniporters transport a single substrate, while symporters and antiporters transport two substrates in the same or in opposite directions, respectively, across membranes. MFS proteins are typically 400 to 600 amino acids in length, and the majority contain 12 transmembrane alpha helices (TMs) connected by hydrophilic loops. The N- and C-terminal halves of these proteins display weak similarity and may be the result of a gene duplication/fusion event. Based on kinetic studies and the structures of a few bacterial superfamily members, GlpT (glycerol-3-phosphate transporter), LacY (lactose permease), and EmrD (multidrug transporter), MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement. Bacterial members function primarily for nutrient uptake, and as drug-efflux pumps to confer antibiotic resistance. Some MFS proteins have medical significance in humans such as the glucose transporter Glut4, which is impaired in type II diabetes, and glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT), which causes glycogen storage disease when mutated.

Fungal Hexose transporter subfamily of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of transporters and similar proteins; The fungal hexose transporter (HXT) subfamily is comprised of functionally redundant proteins that function mainly in the transport of glucose, as well as other sugars such as galactose and fructose. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has 20 genes that encode proteins in this family (HXT1 to HXT17, GAL2, SNF3, and RGT2). Seven of these (HXT1-7) encode functional glucose transporters. Gal2p is a galactose transporter, while Rgt2p and Snf3p act as cell surface glucose receptors that initiate signal transduction in response to glucose, functioning in an induction pathway responsible for glucose uptake. Rgt2p is activated by high levels of glucose and stimulates expression of low affinity glucose transporters such as Hxt1p and Hxt3p, while Snf3p generates a glucose signal in response to low levels of glucose, stimulating the expression of high affinity glucose transporters such as Hxt2p and Hxt4p. Schizosaccharomyces pombe contains eight GHT genes (GHT1-8) belonging to this family. Ght1, Ght2, and Ght5 are high-affinity glucose transporters; Ght3 is a high-affinity gluconate transporter; and Ght6 high-affinity fructose transporter.

O. formigenes, a commensal found in the gut of animals and humans, plays an important role in clearing dietary oxalate from the intestinal tract, which is carried out by OFA/OxlT, an anion transporter that facilitates the exchange of divalent oxalate with monovalent formate, the product of oxalate decarboxylation. This exchange generates an electrochemical proton gradient and is the source of energy for ATP synthesis in this cell. The OFA-like subfamily belongs to the Monocarboxylate transporter -like (MCT-like) family of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins. MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Proline/betaine transporter of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of transporters; This subfamily is composed of Escherichia coli proline/betaine transporter, also called proline porter II (PPII), and similar proteins. ProP is a proton symporter that senses osmotic shifts and responds by importing osmolytes such as proline, glycine betaine, stachydrine, pipecolic acid, ectoine and taurine. It is both an osmosensor and an osmoregulator which is available to participate early in the bacterial osmoregulatory response. The ProP subfamily belongs to the Metazoan Synaptic Vesicle Glycoprotein 2 (SV2) and related small molecule transporter family (SV2-like) of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins. MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Hexuronate transporter, Glucarate transporter, and similar transporters of the Major Facilitator Superfamily; This family is composed of predominantly bacterial transporters for hexuronate (ExuT), glucarate (GudP), galactarate (GarP), and galactonate (DgoT). They mediate the uptake of these compounds into the cell. They belong to the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins, which are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Pantothenate transporter FEN2 and similar transporters of the Major Facilitator Superfamily; This family is composed of Saccharomyces cerevisiae pantothenate transporter FEN2 (or fenpropimorph resistance protein 2) and similar proteins from fungi and bacteria including fungal vitamin H transporter, allantoate permease, and high-affinity nicotinic acid transporter, as well as Pseudomonas putida phthalate transporter and nicotinate degradation protein T (nicT). These proteins are involved in the uptake into the cell of specific substrates such as pathothenate, biotin, allantoate, and nicotinic acid, among others. The FEN2-like family belongs to the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins, which are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

This image shows a graphical summary of conserved domains identified on the query sequence.
The Show Concise/Full Display button at the top of the page can be used to select the desired level of detail: only top scoring hits
(labeled illustration) or all hits
(labeled illustration).
Domains are color coded according to superfamilies
to which they have been assigned. Hits with scores that pass a domain-specific threshold
(specific hits) are drawn in bright colors.
Others (non-specific hits) and
superfamily placeholders are drawn in pastel colors.
if a domain or superfamily has been annotated with functional sites (conserved features),
they are mapped to the query sequence and indicated through sets of triangles
with the same color and shade of the domain or superfamily that provides the annotation. Mouse over the colored bars or triangles to see descriptions of the domains and features.
click on the bars or triangles to view your query sequence embedded in a multiple sequence alignment of the proteins used to develop the corresponding domain model.
The table lists conserved domains identified on the query sequence. Click on the plus sign (+) on the left to display full descriptions, alignments, and scores.
