MP4 holin family

The Mycobacterial 4 TMS Phage Holin (MP4 Holin) Family (TC# 1.E.40) is a group of transporters belonging to Holin superfamily IV.[1] A representative list of members belonging to the MP4 holin family can be found in the Transporter Classification Database.

A member of the Mycobacterial 4 transmembrane segment (TMS) Phage Holin family was first identified by Catalao et. al.[2] This small family includes several 4 TMS homologues, from mycobacterial phage and cyanobacteria. None of these proteins have been functionally characterized.[3]
