OppA, the ecto-ATPase of Mycoplasma hominis induces ATP release and cell death in HeLa cells

BACKGROUND: In the facultative human pathogen Mycoplasma hominis, which belongs to the cell wall-less Mollicutes, the surface-localised substrate-binding domain OppA of the oligopeptide permease was characterised as the main ecto-ATPase.
