Abstract

We report 1HN, 15N, and 13C resonance assignments for the 15.6 kDa STAS domain of the putative sulfate transporter of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rv1739c, using heteronuclear, multidimensional NMR spectroscopy. Rv1739c is a SulP anion permease, related in structure to the SLC26 gene family of metazoan anion exchangers and anion channels.
