Archaeal Surface Layer Proteins Contain Propeller, PKD, and Helix Domains and Are Related to Metazoan Cell Surface Proteins
which is defined structurally in this paper, is increased in lamina, as shown by immunofluorescence [8], and is present at cell-cell interfaces, as shown by immunogold staining (A. Marcario, personal communication). Despite the physiological importance of SLPs, little is Hua Jing,1 Junichi Takagi,1 Jin-huan Liu,2 Sara Lindgren,2 Rong-guang Zhang,4 A.

متن کاملMini-Review Facing extremes: archaeal surface-layer (glyco)proteins
Archaea are best known in their capacities as extremophiles, i.e. micro-organisms able to thrive in some of the most drastic environments on Earth. The protein-based surface layer that envelopes many archaeal strains must thus correctly assemble and maintain its structural integrity in the face of the physical challenges associated with, for instance, life in high salinity, at elevated temperat...
متن کاملComparing autotransporter β-domain configurations for their capacity to secrete heterologous proteins to the cell surface
Monomeric autotransporters have been extensively used for export of recombinant proteins to the cell surface of Gram-negative bacteria. A bottleneck in the biosynthesis of such constructs is the passage of the outer membrane, which is facilitated by the β-domain at the C terminus of an autotransporter in conjunction with the Bam complex in the outer membrane. We have evaluated eight β-domain co...
متن کاملDynamic cell surface hydrophobicity of Lactobacillus strains with and without surface layer proteins.
Variations in surface hydrophobicity of six Lactobacillus strains with and without an S-layer upon changes in ionic strength are derived from contact angle measurements with low- and high-ionic-strength aqueous solutions. Cell surface hydrophobicity changed in response to changes in ionic strength in three out of the six strains, offering these strains a versatile mechanism to adhere to differe...
متن کاملEncephalitis and antibodies to synaptic and neuronal cell surface proteins.
The identification of encephalitis associated with antibodies against cell surface and synaptic proteins, although recent, has already had a substantial impact in clinical neurology and neuroscience. The target antigens are receptors and proteins that have critical roles in synaptic transmission and plasticity, including the NMDA receptor, the AMPA receptor, the GABA(B) receptor, and the glycin...
