Gene Description

PP_0075 is a multi-pass SLC26A/SulP-family membrane transporter with a cytoplasmic STAS domain. It lies next to the choline-sulfatase gene betC, but its transported substrate, coupling mechanism, and proposed role in choline-O-sulfate uptake have not been established experimentally.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: The multi-pass architecture strongly supports membrane localization.
Reason: Membrane location is valid topology but is ancillary to the unresolved transport activity.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane
GO:0055085 transmembrane transport
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
ACCEPT
Summary: Accept generic transmembrane transport without assigning a specific cargo.
Reason: Nine predicted membrane-spanning segments and the SLC26A/SulP family assignment support a transport role. Neither the submitted product name nor genomic adjacency establishes choline-O-sulfate specificity.

PP_0075 encodes an integral inner-membrane secondary transporter belonging to the **SulP / SLC26 anion-permease superfamily**.

NEW
Summary: Add the generic molecular activity implied by the multi-pass SLC26A/SulP architecture.
Reason: The fetched GOA set contains the transport process but no molecular function. A generic transporter activity is defensible while exact cargo specificity remains unresolved.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: What solute does PP_0075 transport, and does it functionally couple to the adjacent PP_0076 binding protein?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Measure uptake of choline-O-sulfate, sulfate, choline, and related solutes in clean PP_0075 deletion and complementation strains, then reconstitute transport in proteoliposomes.
