Nanoscopic surfactant behavior of the porin MspA in aqueous media [PDF]
The mycobacterial porin MspA is one of the most stable channel proteins known to date. MspA forms vesicles at low concentrations in aqueous buffers. Evidence from dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy and zeta-potential measurements ...

Nucleotide discrimination with DNA immobilized in the MspA nanopore. [PDF]
Nanopore sequencing has the potential to become a fast and low-cost DNA sequencing platform. An ionic current passing through a small pore would directly map the sequence of single stranded DNA (ssDNA) driven through the constriction.

Lipoteichoic acid biosynthesis by Staphylococcus aureus is controlled by the MspA protein
Staphylococcus aureus produces a plethora of virulence factors critical to its ability to establish an infection and cause disease. We have previously characterized a small membrane protein, MspA, which has pleiotropic effects on virulence and ...

Probing Nanopore - DNA Interactions With MspA
Nanopores can be used as extremely sensitive instruments to directly measure properties of individual molecules. Progress in the nanopore field has been motivated largely by a desire to sequence DNA quickly and accurately.

The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA) establishes federal standards specific to farmworkers. (No other U.S. industry has a labor standard that applies solely to its workforce.) The original intent behind MSPA was to ensure ...

The Sheaths of Methanospirillum Are Made of a New Type of Amyloid Protein
The genera Methanospirillum and Methanosaeta contain species of anaerobic archaea that grow and divide within proteinaceous tubular sheaths that protect them from environmental stressors.

Schematic representation of MspA and MspA-MspB subunit dimer
MspA monomer (A) is encoded by a single copy of mspA gene. Eight monomers self assemble in the outer membrane of Mycobacterium smegmatis to form a functional pore (B and C, top and side view, respectively).

A nanopore composed of transmembrane peptides and a DNA scaffold that assists peptide assembly was constructed. By employing peptides containing the unnatural amino acid 2‐aminoisobutyric acid (Aib), which promotes loose packing between helices, a large‐diameter nanopore was achieved.
