description: Members of this family of bacterial proteins assume a beta-sandwich structure consisting
  of two antiparallel beta-sheets similar to an immunoglobulin-like fold, with an additional small, antiparallel
  beta-sheet. The longer-stranded beta-sheet is made up of four antiparallel beta-strands. The shorter-stranded
  beta-sheet consists of five beta-strands, four of these beta-strands form an antiparallel beta-sheet.
  The exact function of this family of proteins is unknown, though a putative role includes involvement
  in host-bacterial interactions involved in endocytosis or phagocytosis, possibly during bacterial internalisation
