| Type | Family |
| Description | Representatives of this family include a 13-member paralogous family of proteins about 215 amino acids in length from the termite gut bacterium Opitutaceae bacterium TAV2, a member of the Verrucomicrobia. Family members contain an N-terminal signal peptide and a C-terminal PEP-CTERM putative protein sorting signal. Conserved residues such as an invariant Arg and a lack of conspicuous low-complexity sequence suggest a globular structure and possible enzymatic activity. Members average about thirty percent sequence identify overall, but over seventy percent in the PEP-CTERM region. The function of this family is unknown. |
