We previously described a system for translocating the periplasmic enzyme alkaline phosphatase and the outer membrane protein OmpA into inverted membrane vesicles of Escherichia coli. We have now optimized and substantially improved the translocation system by including polyamines and by reducing the amount of membrane used. Under these conditions, efficient translocation was seen even posttran...
Among the major obstacles to pharmacological and structural studies of integral membrane proteins (MPs) are their natural scarcity and the difficulty in overproducing them in their native form. MPs can be overexpressed in the non-native state as inclusion bodies, but inducing them to achieve their functional three-dimensional structure has proven to be a major challenge. We describe here the us...
Repeat Chlamydia trachomatis detection frequently occurs within months after C. trachomatis infection treatment. The origins of such infection (persistence versus reinfection from untreated or new partners) are varied and difficult to determine. C. trachomatis strains can be differentiated by sequencing the ompA gene encoding the outer membrane protein A (OmpA). We used OmpA genotyping to inves...
Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) is an important cause of sexually transmitted genital tract infections (STIs) and trachoma. Despite major research into chlamydial pathogenesis and host immune responses, immunoprotection has been hampered by the incomplete understanding of protective immunity in the genital tract. Characterized vaccine candidates have shown variable efficacy ranging from no protectio...
The outer-membrane proteins OmpA and FhuA of Escherichia coli are monomeric beta-barrels of widely differing size. Polarized attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy has been used to determine the orientation of the beta-barrels in phosphatidylcholine host matrices of different lipid chain lengths. The linear dichroism of the amide I band from OmpA and FhuA in hydrated membranes genera...
'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' (CaLas), associated with citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), is a non culturable member of the α-proteobacteria. In this study serologically based methods for the detection of CaLas were developed. An anti-outer membrane protein A (OmpA) polyclonal antibody previously produced (in our laboratory) was highly effective for the detection of CaLas from citrus tissues in ...
BACKGROUND Genital chlamydia infection is the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infection in the UK. C. trachomatis genital infections are usually caused by strains which fall into two pathovars: lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) and the genitourinary genotypes D-K. Although these genotypes can be discriminated by outer membrane protein gene (ompA) sequencing or multi-locus sequence typ...
A hybrid gene consisting of the ompF promoter, the coding regions for the signal peptide, and the Ala-Glu residue of the OmpF NH2 terminus and the coding region for the major outer membrane lipoprotein devoid of the NH2-terminal cysteine residue was constructed. Escherichia coli carrying the cloned gene produced the predicted hybrid protein that is the same as the major lipoprotein except that ...
Outer membrane protein A (OmpA) has been implicated as an important virulence factor in several gram-negative bacterial infections such as Escherichia coli K1, a leading cause of neonatal meningitis associated with significant mortality and morbidity. In this study, we generated E. coli K1 mutants that express OmpA in which three or four amino acids from various extracellular loops were changed...
