Abstract:
Recently the existence of two different Na+-coupled oligopeptide transport systems has been described in mammalian cells. These transport systems are distinct from the previously known H+/peptide cotransporters PEPT1 and PEPT2, which transport only dipeptides and tripeptides. To date, the only peptide transport system known to exist in the intestine is PEPT1. Here we investigated the expression of the Na+-coupled oligopeptide transporters in intestinal cell lines, using the hydrolysis-resistant synthetic oligopeptides deltorphin II and [d-Ala2,d-Leu5]enkephalin (DADLE) as model substrates.

ABSTRACT For effective utilization of peptides, Listeria monocytogenes possesses two different peptide transport systems. The first one is the previously described proton motive force (PMF)-driven di- and tripeptide transport system (A. Verheul, A. Hagting, M.-R. Amezaga, I. R. Booth, F. M. Rombouts, and T. Abee, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 61:226–233, 1995). The present results reveal that L. monocytogenes possesses an oligopeptide transport system, presumably requiring ATP rather than the PMF as the driving force for translocation.

ABSTRACT Oligopeptides internalized by oligopeptide permease (Opp) transporters play key roles in bacterial nutrition, signaling, and virulence. To date, two opp operons, opp-1 and opp-2, have been identified in Staphylococcus aureus. Systematic in silico analysis of 11 different S. aureus genomes revealed the existence of two new opp operons, opp-3 and opp-4, plus an opp-5A gene encoding a putative peptide-binding protein. With the exception of opp-4, the opp operons were present in all S. aureus strains. Within a single strain, the different opp operons displayed little sequence similarity a

ABSTRACT Oligopeptides are transported into Bacillus subtilis by two ABC transport systems, App and Opp. Transcription of the operon encoding the Opp system was found to occur during exponential growth, whereas the app operon was induced at the onset of stationary phase.

The brush-border membrane of renal epithelial cells contains PEPT1 and PEPT2 proteins that are rheogenic carriers for short-chain peptides.

Attempts to isolate mutants requiring even higher concentrations of K+ failed, implying that either TrkF is essential or is composed of multiple minor K+ transport activities. Instead, we sought mutations that allowed triple mutants to grow at lower K+ concentrations. Mutations so identifie
