TIGR00937

chromate transporter, chromate ion transporter (CHR) family; Members of this family probably act as chromate transporters, and are found in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Alcaligenes eutrophus, Vibrio cholerae, Bacillus subtilis, cyanobacteria and archaea. The protein reduces chromate accumulation and is essential for chromate resistance. Cutoffs for this model have now been lowered, compared to a previous version, giving the model a scope more similar to that of pfam02417. Members of the original, more narrowly defined family score above 500.00 bits [Transport and binding proteins, Anions].
