bacteriocin-like WGxF protein
Members of this protein family of hydrophobic proteins about 60 amino acids long are found various members of the Firmicutes in three-gene contexts that suggest a role as a bacteriocin or an immunity protein. The protein is named for its most striking sequence feature, a nearly invariant WGxF motif. The two conserved neighboring families are TIGR01654-like (e.g. WP_149116529.1) and TIGR03608-like (e.g. WP_149116530.1).
