The role of bacterial secretion systems in the virulence of Gram-negative airway pathogens associated with cystic fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal inherited disorder in Caucasians. It is caused by mutation of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.

Exploring the biochemistry at the extracellular redox frontier of bacterial mineral Fe(III) respiration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many species of the bacterial Shewanella genus are notable for their ability to respire in anoxic environments utilizing insoluble minerals of Fe(III) and Mn(IV) as extracellular electron acceptors.

Bacterial Outer Membranes and Interactions with Membrane Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Because the bacteria's outer membrane (OM) acts as an effective barrier against the permeation of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic compounds, gram-negative cell permeation is one of the biggest challenges to the discovery of novel antibiotics for bacterial infections and antibiotic resistance worldwide.

Outer membrane biogenesis in Helicobacter pylori: A deviation from the paradigm

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
The bacterial pathogen Helicobacter pylori is capable of colonizing the gastric mucosa of the human stomach using a variety of factors associated with or secreted from its outer membrane (OM).

Stress-Responsive Periplasmic Chaperones in Bacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Periplasmic proteins are involved in a wide range of bacterial functions, including motility, biofilm formation, sensing environmental cues, and small-molecule transport. In addition, a wide range of outer membrane proteins and proteins that are secreted

Apocytochrome c [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The cytochrome c import pathway differs markedly from the general route taken by the majority of other imported proteins, which is characterized by the import involvement of namely, surface receptors, the general insertion protein (GIP), contact sites ...

Effect of Energy Metabolism on Protein Motility in the Bacterial Outer Membrane [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2009
We demonstrate the energy dependence of the motion of a porin, the lambda-receptor, in the outer membrane of living Escherichia coli by single molecule investigations. By poisoning the bacteria with arsenate and azide, the bacterial energy metabolism was stopped.

β-Barrel Assembly Machinery (BAM) Complex as Novel Antibacterial Drug Target

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is closely related to the pathogenicity and drug resistance of bacteria. Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) are a class of proteins with important biological functions on the outer membrane.

Membrane proteins and proteomics: Love is possible, but so difficult [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Despite decades of extensive research, the large-scale analysis of membrane proteins remains a difficult task. This is due to the fact that membrane proteins require a carefully balanced hydrophilic and lipophilic environment, which optimum varies with ...
