Overexpression in Escherichia coli and functional analysis of a novel PPi-selective porin, oprO, from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Immediately upstream from and adjacent to the oprP gene, which codes for the phosphate-specific porin OprP of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, lies the PR region (oprO), which cross-hybridizes with oprP DNA. To determine the function of this region, the oprO gene was expressed behind the lactose promoter in Escherichia coli, and the resultant OprO protein was purified and reconstituted into planar lipid...
متن کاملStructure, Dynamics, and Substrate Specificity of the OprO Porin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria functions as a selective permeability barrier between cell and environment. For nutrient acquisition, the OM contains a number of channels that mediate uptake of small molecules by diffusion. Many of these channels are specific, i.e., they prefer certain substrates over others. In electrophysiological experiments, the OM channels OprP and OprO f...
متن کاملModeling the Ion Selectivity of the Phosphate Specific Channel OprP.
Ion selectivity of transport systems is an essential property of membranes from living organisms. These entities are used to regulate multifarious biological processes by virtue of selective participation of specific ions in transport processes. To understand this process, we studied the phosphate selectivity of the OprP porin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa using all-atom free-energy molecular dyn...
