Vitamin B12 transport protein C015 / 5824
Vitamin B12 transport protein, molecular model. This transmembrane protein, known as BTUB, is from the Escherichia coli bacterium. It allows active transport of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) across the outer membrane of the bacterial cell. This process explains how E. coli in human intestines can affect the uptake of vitamin B12

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Vitamin B12 transport protein C015/5824, also known as BTUB. The black background adds a dramatic touch to this illustration that delves into the realm of biology and biochemistry. Derived from the Escherichia coli bacterium, BTUB is a transmembrane protein responsible for facilitating active transport of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) across the outer membrane of bacterial cells. This process sheds light on how E. coli in our intestines can impact the absorption of this essential nutrient. The image highlights the detailed architecture of this macromolecule, emphasizing its role as a receptor and transporter within cellular systems. Its significance lies in enabling efficient uptake and distribution of vitamin B12, crucial for various biochemical processes in our bodies. With its scientific accuracy and artistic flair, this artwork serves as an invaluable resource for microbiologists and researchers studying bacterial physiology. It offers insights into how bacteria like Escherichia coli interact with nutrients at a molecular level. Through its visual representation, this print sparks curiosity about the intricate workings of biological systems while shedding light on potential deficiencies that may arise due to impaired vitamin B12 uptake. LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY has expertly captured both scientific precision and aesthetic appeal in their portrayal of this vital transport protein's structure.
