Organism
Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage
Bacteria; Pseudomonadati; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as
ECK4029; molA
Summary
Both precursor and processed forms are seen, but no protein sequencing was done. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10559]. malM is the last gene in the malK-lamB-malM operon and is thus part of the maltose regulon. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10559].
