2.A.40.5.1
Putative purine permease, YbbY.  The ybbY gene is in an operon involved with allantoin metabolism, and is flanked by allB, encoding allantoinase, and the glxK gene, encoding glycerate kinase II. Downstream of glxK is YlbA, encoding S-uridoglycine aminohydrolase, the second enzyme involved in allantoin degradation (Moraes and Reithmeier 2012).
