nucleoside-specific channel forming porin activity

id: GO:0015471
name: nucleoside-specific channel forming porin activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Enables the energy independent passage of nucleoside, sized less than 1000 Da, across a membrane. The transmembrane portions of porins consist exclusively of beta-strands which form a beta-barrel. They are found in the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria, plastids and possibly acid-fast Gram-positive bacteria.
