Ferrous iron transport protein B (FeoB) family Ferrous iron transport protein B (FeoB) subfamily. E. coli has an iron(II) transport system, known as feo, which may make an important contribution to the iron supply of the cell under anaerobic conditions. FeoB has been identified as part of this transport system. FeoB is a large 700-800 amino acid integral membrane protein. The N terminus contains a P-loop motif suggesting that iron transport may be ATP dependent.
