Gene info for BT1277 in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron VPI-5482

Updated annotation (from data): L-fucose/D-arabinose symporter FucP
Rationale: Specifically important for utilizing L-fucose and D-arabinose. The transporter BT0355 also has negative fitness during D-arabinose utilization, but the effect is strand-dependent, which suggests that it is a polar effect. BT1277 is probably the main D-arabinose transporter.
Original annotation: L-fucose permease (NCBI ptt file)
Type 1: Protein-coding gene
Located on scaffold 241, + strand, nucleotides 1,587,227 to 1,588,543
