Abstract excerpt
The import of nonnatural molecules is a recurring problem in fundamental and applied aspects of microbiology. The dipeptide permease (Dpp) of Escherichia coli is an ABC-type multicomponent transporter system located in the cytoplasmic membrane, which is capable of transporting a wide range of di- and tripeptides with structurally and chemically diverse amino acid side chains into the cell. Given this low degree...
