Vitamin B12 transport protein C015 / 5823
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 C015/5823, also known as BTUB. Derived from the Escherichia coli bacterium, this transmembrane protein plays a crucial role in actively transporting vitamin B12 (cobalamin) across the outer membrane of bacterial cells. Its significance lies in its ability to elucidate how E. coli residing within human intestines can impact the absorption of vitamin B12. The white background beautifully contrasts with the detailed illustration, allowing viewers to appreciate every aspect of this biological marvel. The image highlights key features such as the receptor sites and macromolecular composition that enable efficient active transport. With implications for both biology and nutrition, this artwork sheds light on potential deficiencies caused by disruptions in Vitamin B12 uptake. By understanding how BTUB functions at a cellular level, scientists gain valuable insights into microbiological processes and biochemistry. Laguna Design/Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this visually striking representation of BTUB's structural complexity through their meticulous cut-out technique. This print serves as a testament to their expertise in proteomics and microbiology imagery.
