Outer Membrane Protein YadA of Enteropathogenic Yersiniae Mediates Specific Binding to Cellular but Not Plasma Fibronectin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The binding of bacteria or bacterial products to host proteins of tissue extracellular matrix may be a mechanism of tissue adherence. We investigated interactions of the plasmid-encoded outer membrane protein YadA, which confers pathogenic functions on ...

One‐Step Curcumin‐Mediated Multiphoton Lithography for Bioactive 3D Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Curcumin‐mediated multiphoton lithography enables one‐step fabrication of highly architected complex gelatin methacryloyl scaffolds by exploiting curcumin as a multifunctional bioactive photoinitiator. The resulting 3D structures support mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and migration, while exhibiting dual antibacterial activity through ...

Plasticity within the barrel domain of BamA mediates a hybrid-barrel mechanism by BAM

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) assists the folding and membrane insertion of bacterial outer membrane proteins. Here, the authors report structural characterization of BAM in lipid environment and in complex with the client protein EspP integrated

Bacterial Origin of a Mitochondrial Outer Membrane Protein Translocase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Mitochondria are of bacterial ancestry and have to import most of their proteins from the cytosol. This process is mediated by Tom40 an essential protein that forms the protein translocating pore in the outer mitochondrial membrane. Tom40 is conserved in virtually all eukaryotes but its evolutionary origin is unclear because bacterial orthologues have ...

A mechanism of protein localization : the signal hypothesis and bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
We are studying the molecular mechanism of cellular protein localization. The availability of genetic techniques, such as gene fusion in Escherichia coli, has made this problem particularly amenable to study in this prokaryote.

Dual‐Layer Conducting and Redox Polymer Bioanodes for Synergistic Enhancement of Microbial Extracellular Electron Transfer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid PEDOT/Fc‐LPEI conducting/redox polymer bioanode synergistically improves microbial extracellular electron transfer (EET) in Shewanella oneidensis MR‐1. The dual‐layer interface delivers 18‐fold higher current output and 27‐fold greater charge collected than bare carbon felt, highlighting an effective strategy for high‐performance ...

The TAM, a Translocation and Assembly Module for protein assembly and potential conduit for phospholipid transfer

open access: yesEMBO Reports
The assembly of β-barrel proteins into the bacterial outer membrane is an essential process enabling the colonization of new environmental niches. The TAM was discovered as a module of the β-barrel protein assembly machinery; it is a heterodimeric ...

Acquisition of ionic copper by a bacterial outer membrane protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Abstract Copper, while toxic in excess, is an essential micronutrient in all kingdoms of life due to its essential role in the structure and function of many proteins. Proteins mediating ionic copper import have been characterised in detail for eukaryotes, but much less so for prokaryotes.

Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...
