dpp Genes of Rhizobium leguminosarum Specify Uptake of δ-Aminolevulinic Acid

An operon with homology to the dppABCDF genes required to transport dipeptides in bacteria was identified in the N2-fixing symbiont, Rhizobium leguminosarum. As in other bacteria, dpp mutants were severely affected in the import of δ-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), a heme precursor. ALA uptake was antago...
