AccessionGenProp0626
Nameprotein sorting system, sortase type, LPXTG/SrtA class
TypeSYSTEM
DescriptionThis property describes the common subtype of the sortase system for targeting cell wall proteins in the Firmicutes by recognition of the LPXTG C-terminal motif. The presence of one or more sortases and their target sequences should be universal in Gram-positive organisms with cell walls. Sortase is a transpeptidase; sortases belonging to this Genome Property resemble SrtA, and the sorting signal generally resembles LPXTG. Several SrtA paralogs can be found in some genomes, as well as the substantially different SrtB and other families of sortase and their cognate sequences.
