Legacy (H37Rv / Mycobrowser)oligopeptide ABC transporter permease OppC
MTBC0 PGAP re-annotationABC transporter permease
Revised (this work)ABC transporter permease. Pfam: OppC_N (PF12911.13), BPD_transp_1 (PF00528.28).

Auto-curated: this verdict and function were generated by rules from PGAP + Pfam + Foldseek and have not been hand-reviewed.

Curated reference (UniProt)

UniProt P9WFZ9 SwissProt · reviewed · Evidence at protein level
UniProt nameOligopeptide transport system permease protein OppC
Curated functionPart of the ABC transporter complex OppABCD involved in the uptake of oligopeptides. Responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane. Glutathione (GSH) uptake by mycobacteria through the OppABCD system contributes to the depletion of the GSH pool in infected macrophages, which impairs the ability of the macrophage to detoxify methylglyoxal (MG) and contributes to enhanced production of inflammatory cytokines. May also promote Mn(2+) uptake.

Orthology-based transfer (eggNOG 5.0.2, diamond). EC/KO/GO/CAZy are computed annotations, not manual curation; cross-check against the primary literature before treating a specific reaction as established.

Conservation & selection (intra-MTBC, 145 209 strains)

pN/pS 0.123 · strong purifying
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 3 synonymous, 1 missense, 0 nonsense, 0 frameshift

pN/pS from segregating SNPs (singletons removed) normalised by possible sites. Low pN/pS = purifying selection (a strong signal that a "hypothetical" is a real, constrained gene). A high pN/pS is ambiguous: relaxed constraint or positive selection (drug resistance, antigenic variation) inflate it; e.g. rpoB/katG/pncA score high here for resistance, not loss of function. A clonal disruption (one allele over a clade) suggests lineage pseudogenisation; a convergent one (many independent alleles) is typical of resistance loss-of-function.

STRING combines evidence channels (neighborhood, fusion, cooccurrence, coexpression, experimental, database, text-mining) into a 0–1000 score. The ctx badge marks edges carried by the genomic-context channels (conserved neighborhood, fusion, phylogenetic co-occurrence), which are independent of orthology and structure and the strongest signal for an unknown gene. The no text-mining column recomputes the score from data alone, so a link that does not depend on the literature is visible. Association is a function hypothesis, not proof: corroborate with the operon context and the primary literature before assigning a function.
