1.S.8.1.2
Encapsulin of 307 aas, a type 2A encapsulin shell protein, EncP2 It forms encapsulin nanocompartments about 24 nm in diameter from 60 monomers. Probably encapsulates at least cysteine desulfurase (CyD, AC O32975) and allows passage of cysteine into its interior, probably involved in sulfur metabolism (Triccas et al. 1996).
