Primary structure of major outer membrane protein II (ompA protein) of Escherichia coli K-12.
The amino acid sequence of major outer membrane protein II (ompA protein) from Escherichia coli K-12 has been determined. The transmembrane polypeptide consists of 325 residues, resulting in a molecular weight of 35,159. The transmembrane part of the protein is located between residues 1 and 177. In this part of the protein a predominantly lipophilic 27-residue segment exists that perhaps spans...
متن کاملAn outer membrane protein (OmpA) of Escherichia coli K-12 undergoes a conformational change during export.
Pulse-chase experiments were performed to follow the export of the Escherichia coli outer membrane protein OmpA. Besides the pro-OmpA protein, which carries a 21-residue signal sequence, three species of ompA gene products were distinguishable. One probably represented an incomplete nascent chain, another the mature protein in the outer membrane, and the third, designated imp-OmpA (immature pro...
متن کاملThe nucleotide sequence coding for major outer membrane protein OmpA of Shigella dysenteriae.
The nucleotide sequence of the ompA gene from Shigella dysenteriae has been determined and the amino acid sequence of the pro-OmpA protein predicted. Sequence comparison between the ompA genes of S.dysenteriae and Escherichia coli showed that features such as mRNA secondary structure and codon usage, as well as polypeptide function, have been conserved during evolution. The pro-OmpA protein of ...
متن کاملGene fusions using the ompA gene coding for a major outer-membrane protein of Escherichia coli K12.
It has been shown previously that fragments of the Escherichia coli major outer membrane protein OmpA lacking CO2H-terminal parts can be incorporated into this membrane in vivo [Bremer et al. (1982) Eur. J. Biochem. 122, 223-231]. The possibility that these fragments can be used, via gene fusions, as vehicles to transport other proteins to the outer membrane has been investigated. To test wheth...
متن کاملEscherichia coli K-12 outer membrane protein (OmpA) as a bacteriophage receptor: analysis of mutant genes expressing altered proteins.
The outer membrane protein OmpA of Escherichia coli K-12 serves as a receptor for a number of T-even-like phages. We have isolated a series of ompA mutants which are resistant to such phages but which still produce the OmpA protein. None of the mutants was able to either irreversibly or reversibly bind the phage with which they had been selected. Also, the OmpA protein is required for the actio...
