| Comment | This model represents a family of PTS enzyme II fused B and C components including and most closely related to the MalX maltose and glucose-specific transporter of E. coli [1]. A pair of paralogous genes from E. coli strain CFT073 score between trusted and noise and may have diverged sufficiently to have an altered substrate specificity. |

RT The malX malY operon of Escherichia coli encodes a novel enzyme II of the phosphotransferase system recognizing glucose and maltose and an enzyme abolishing the endogenous induction of the maltose system.
