Structure Evaluation of IroN for Designing a Vaccine against Escherichia Coli, an In Silico Approach

Introduction: Some strains of Escherichia Coli, including intestinal pathogenic strains, commensal strains, and extra intestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) have a significant impact on human health status. A standard vaccine designed based on conserved epitopes can stimulate a protective immune response against these pathogens. Additionally, enhanced expression at the infection site as a pathog...

In Silico Studies of Outer Membrane of Neisseria Meningitidis PorA: Its Expression and Immunogenic Properties

Neisseria meningitidis is a major causative agent of bacterial septicemia and meningitis in humans. Currently, there are no vaccines to prevent disease caused by strains of N.meningitidis serogroup B. The Class 1 Outer Membrane Protein (OMP) has been named porA which is a cation selective transmembrane protein of 45 KDa that forms trimeric pore in the meningococcal outer membrane. PorA from ser...

Iron-regulated outer membrane proteins of Escherichia coli K-12 and mechanism of action of catechol-substituted cephalosporins.

Selected aminothiazolyl-oxime cephalosporin congeners substituted at C-3' with a catechol moiety were used to probe the basis of the enhanced antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli K-12 often associated with chemical modifications of this type. Evidence is presented for a tonB-dependent illicit transport of the compounds across the outer membrane of E. coli K-12, the process involving ...

Lysyl-derived aldehydes in outer membrane proteins of Escherichia coli.

The major outer membrane proteins from Escherichia coli K-12 are modified to contain alpha-aminoadipic acid delta-semialdehyde (allysine). The allysine was found to be derived from lysine and it was identified by derivatizing it to chloronorleucine by reduction, alpha-aminoadipic acid by oxidation, and to alpha,epsilon-diaminopimelic acid by reacting it with CN- and NH3. The alpha-aminoadipic a...

Cloning of Bordetella pertussis outer membrane proteins in Escherichia coli.

We constructed and screened a gene bank of phase I chromosomal DNA of Bordetella pertussis in Escherichia coli. A single immunopositive clone was recovered, and the hybrid plasmid obtained, designated pFSH200, had a molecular size of 46.6 kilobases. Smaller derivatives were generated by partial digestion of plasmid pFSH200 and were further characterized. One such derivative, plasmid pFSH201, co...

Escherichia coli tol-pal mutants form outer membrane vesicles.

Mutations in the tol-pal genes induce pleiotropic effects such as release of periplasmic proteins into the extracellular medium and hypersensitivity to drugs and detergents. Other outer membrane defective strains such as tolC, lpp, and rfa mutations are also altered in their outer membrane permeability. In this study, electron microscopy and Western blot analyses were used to show that strains ...
