Mhp1, the Na⁺-Hydantoin Membrane Transport Protein [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Mhp1 is a member of the Nucleobase-Cation-Symport-1 (NCS-1) family designated A.2.39.5 (Saier et al 2006, 2009; Ren and Paulsen, 2010), which carries out transport across membranes of hydantoins substituted with aromatic rings in the 5-position. The wild-type protein contains 489 amino acids (Suzuki and Henderson 2006), modestly modified in a genetic construct at the N-terminus and C-terminus, where a (His)6 tag is incorporated to facilitate amplified expression, purification and crystallisation (Suzuki and Henderson 2006; Shimamura et al, 2008). The transport reaction of Mhp1 is Hydantoin (out) + Na+ (out) –\textgreater Hydantoin (in) + Na+ (in) This reaction is of commercial interest, because of the potential for converting waste hydantoins to compounds of added value, for example L-amino acids (Suzuki et al 2005; Javier et al 2009).
