2.A.1.1.1
Galactose:H+ symporter, GalP. Also transports glucose, xylose, fucose (6-deoxygalactose), 2-deoxygalactose and 2-deoxyglucose) (Henderson and Giddens 1977Henderson et al. 1977; Hernández-Montalvo et al., 2001). Relative substrate affinities of wild-type and mutant forms of the E. coli sugar transporter GalP have been determined by solid-state NMR (Patching et al., 2008).  GalP may exist as a trimer with each subunit having a sugar transporting channel (Zheng et al. 2010).
