Outer-membrane vesicles from Gram-negative bacteria: biogenesis and functions
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2015 Outer-membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spherical buds of the outer membrane filled with periplasmic content and are commonly produced by Gram-negative bacteria.

Analysis of Moraxella catarrhalis Outer Membrane Protein Profiles
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Phenotypes observed for certain Moraxella catarrhalis wild-type strains or mutants may be caused by a variety of factors including alteration of outer membrane protein composition. Examination of the outer membrane protein profiles may be a valuable tool

Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMVs) of Gram-negative Bacteria: A Perspective Update
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMVs) of Gram-negative bacteria are spherical membrane-enclosed entities of endocytic origin. Reported in the consortia of different bacterial species, production of OMVs into extracellular milieu seems essential for their ...

Deoxyribonucleic acid and outer membrane: binding to outer membrane involves a specific protein [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1979 The binding of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) to the outer membrane of Escherichia coli was examined. The amount of DNA found to be bound to outer membrane was low and was estimated to be about 0.4% of the total DNA. Treatment of cells with chloramphenicol or rifampin caused a disassociation of the apparent DNA-outer membrane complex.

Prediction of β-barrel membrane proteins by searching for restricted domains [PDF]
, 2005 BACKGROUND: The identification of beta-barrel membrane proteins out of a genomic/proteomic background is one of the rapidly developing fields in bioinformatics. Our main goal is the prediction of such proteins in genome/proteome wide analyses.

Bacterial outer membrane vesicles suppress tumor by interferon-γ-mediated antitumor response
Nature Communications, 2017 Gram-negative bacteria actively secrete outer membrane vesicles, spherical nano-meter-sized proteolipids enriched with outer membrane proteins, to the surroundings.

Single-channel measurements of an N-acetylneuraminic acid-inducible outer membrane channel in Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2012 NanC is an Escherichia coli outer membrane protein involved in sialic acid (Neu5Ac, i.e., N-acetylneuraminic acid) uptake. Expression of the NanC gene is induced and controlled by Neu5Ac. The transport mechanism of Neu5Ac is not known.

A New Strain Collection for Improved Expression of Outer Membrane Proteins
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 Almost all integral membrane proteins found in the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria belong to the transmembrane β-barrel family. These proteins are not only important for nutrient uptake and homeostasis, but are also involved in such processes ...
