Function

MGLB_SALTY Part of the ABC transporter complex MglABC involved in galactose/methyl galactoside import (By similarity). In addition, binds D-galactose and D-glucose and plays a role in the chemotaxis towards these two sugars by interacting with the Trg chemoreceptor (Probable).[UniProtKB:P0AEE5]^{[1] [2]}
