UniProtKB accession:  P24141

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Part of the ABC transporter complex OppABCDF involved in the uptake of oligopeptides (PubMed:1901616). Plays an important nutritional role (Probable). Binds peptides containing up to five amino acids residues regardless of their sequence, with highest affinity for tetra- and pentapeptides (PubMed:36748525). Binds to the sporulation-promoting peptide PhrE (Ser-Arg-Asn-Val-Thr) (PubMed:36748525). Required for sporulation and genetic competence (PubMed:1899858).
