Description
MhbT is a transport protein which is located on the cytomembrane. It can transport the 3-HBA into the cell.By sequence comparison, MhbT exhibited 42% identity with the 4-hydroxybenzoate and protocatechuate transporter PcaK from P.putida, 27% identity with the benzoate transporter BenK from Acinetobacter sp. Using the MhbT-GFP fusion proteins , we can find that MhbT is located to the periphery of cells. It can be used in degradation system of 3-HBA, and can also be used in induction system whose derivant is 3-HBA.

We get the part from the bacteria M5a1, and the sequence of the gene was found through Genbank https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/AY648560.1
