The repertoire of ABC proteins in Clostridioides difficile
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021 ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters belong to one of the largest membrane protein superfamilies, which function in translocating substrates across biological membranes using energy from ATP hydrolysis. Currently, the classification of ABC transporters in Clostridioides difficile is not complete.
