Manganese ABC transporter substrate-binding lipoprotein PsaA

UniProtKB accession:  P0A4G2

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Part of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transport system PsaABC involved in manganese import (PubMed:22072971, PubMed:9379902). Binds manganese with high affinity and specificity and delivers it to the membrane permease for translocation into the cytoplasm (PubMed:22072971). Also acts as an adhesin which is involved on adherence to extracellular matrix (PubMed:9379902). It is an important factor in pathogenesis and infection (PubMed:9379902).
