MOLPALP family lipoprotein Members of this family are surface lipoproteins, about 900 amino acids long on average, found only in the Mollicutes (Mycoplasma, Entomoplasma, Acholeplasma, Mesoplasma, Spiroplasma). Paralogs occur, such as MCAP_0360, MCAP_0361, and MCAP_0362 in Mycoplasma capricolum. This family shares significant N-terminal sequence similarity with STREFT (Secreted Thousand Residue Frequently Tandem), described by model TIGR04512; several members of the STREFT family have been misannotated as GnsA/GnsB family proteins. For proteins in this family, we suggest the name MOLPALP (Mollicutes Paralogous Lipoprotein) family lipoprotein [Cell envelope, Surface structures]
