1.B.9.1.1
Fatty acid outer membrane porin. Gated by high affinity ligand (fatty acid) binding which causes conformational changes in the N-terminus that open up a channel for substrate diffusion (Lepore et al., 2011).  May function in the transport of phenylpropanoids (resveratrol, naringenin and rutin) (Zhou et al. 2014).

Species:Escherichia coli [83333]
Number of TMSs:1
Location1 / Topology2 / Orientation3: Cell outer membrane1 / Multi-pass membrane protein2
Substrate resveratrol, (S)-naringenin, rutin
