2.A.1.33.1
MFS homologue, YqgE. It is cotranscribed with ftsI, encoding the peptidoglycan transpeptidase that crosslinks peptidoglycan strands, releasing free D-alanine. Possibly YqgE is a D-alanine uptake porter. Its expression causes a decrease in the amount of sigma W synthesis, the sigma factor for genes involved in detoxification and antimicrobial synthesis (Turner and Helmann 2000).
