A family of homologous substrate-binding proteins with a broad range of substrate specificity and dissimilar biological functions

The uptake of peptides is accomplished mainly by a family of homologous oligopeptide or dipeptide transporters in bacteria. Computer-aided sequence analyses expand members of the oligopeptide-binding protein family to nickel and heme permeases and other proteins, including an enzyme hyaluronate synt...
