Characterization of an OmpA-like outer membrane protein of the acidophilic iron-oxidizing bacterium, Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]
An OmpA family protein (FopA) previously reported as one of the major outer membrane proteins of an acidophilic iron-oxidizing bacterium Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans was characterized with emphasis on the modification by heat and the interaction with ...

ELECTROPHORETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF OUTER MEMBRANE PROTEIN EXTRACT FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI ISOLATED FROM GOAT MILK IN EGYPT [PDF]
Outer membrane protein (OMP) extracts of two E. coli strains O125 and O178 isolated from goat milk were purified and analyzed by use of sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Each strain showed a distinct electrophoretic

Analysis of Moraxella catarrhalis Outer Membrane Protein Profiles
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

Structural characterisation of outer membrane proteins from Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato by small-angle X-ray scattering [PDF]
Forming the interface between the bacterial cell and the host, the outer membrane of Borrelia is known to play a key role in pathogenicity. Although Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato are considered to be Gram-negative, their outer membrane is unique ...

A Msp1-containing complex removes orphaned proteins in the mitochondrial outer membrane of T. brucei
Disruption of mitochondrial outer membrane protein biogenesis triggers a pathway leading to proteasomal degradation of orphan outer membrane proteins mediated by Msp1 and three interacting proteins.

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

A New Strain Collection for Improved Expression of Outer Membrane Proteins
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 ...
