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 کاملRole of a major outer membrane protein in Escherichia coli.
Mutants of Escherichia coli B/r lacking a major outer membrane protein, protein b, were obtained by selecting for resistance to copper. These mutants showed a decreased ability to utilize a variety of metabolites when the metabolites were present at low concentrations. Also, mutants of E. coli K-12 lacking proteins b and c from the outer membrane were shown to have an identical defect in the up...
متن کاملOverexpression and surface localization of the Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein in Escherichia coli.
The Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein (MOMP) is the quantitatively predominant surface protein which has important functional, structural and antigenic properties. We have cloned and overexpressed the MOMP in Escherichia coli. The MOMP is surface exposed in C. trachomatis and capable of eliciting protective antibodies in infected hosts, and therefore has potential as a candidat...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli outer membrane vesicles encapsulated in chitosan nanoparticles
Objective(s): Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is an important cause of diarrheal disease in humans, particularly in children under 5 years and travelers in developing countries. To our knowledge, no vaccine is licensed yet to protect against ETEC infection. Like many Gram-negative pathogens, ETEC can secrete outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). These structures contain various immunogenic vi...
متن کاملLysozyme-promoted association of protein I molecules in the outer membrane of Escherichia coli.
Incubation of whole envelopes prepared from sonically oscillated Escherichia coli K-12 cultures with lysozyme in vitro resulted in the appearance of a protein species with an apparent molecular weight double that of outer membrane protein I. Similar dimers were also detected in purified outer membranes and whole envelopes from lysozyme-induced spheroplasts of E. coli K-12. This was confirmed by...
