The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS), a major carbohydrate active transport system, catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. The enzyme II PtfABC PTS system is involved in fructose transport. Expression is highly up-regulated in presence of fructose. The PTS EIIA type-2 domain is phosphorylated by phospho-HPr on a histidyl residue. Then, it transfers the phosphoryl group to the PTS EIIB type-2 domain. PTS-type transport systems are very rare in archaea.
