THE OUTER MEMBRANE OF PATHOGENIC REPRESENTATIVES OF THE LEPTOSPIRA GENIUS

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2014
. Pathogenic leptospires can infect wide spectrum of hosts and they can survive in the environment long time. The outer membrane is the cellular component participated in interaction of microorganisms and environment.

Regulation of Peptidoglycan Synthesis by Outer-Membrane Proteins [PDF]

Cell, 2010
Growth of the mesh-like peptidoglycan (PG) sacculus located between the bacterial inner and outer membranes (OM) is tightly regulated to ensure cellular integrity, maintain cell shape, and orchestrate division. Cytoskeletal elements direct placement and activity of PG synthases from inside the cell, but precise spatiotemporal control over this process ...

A morphological view on mitochondrial protein targeting [PDF]

, 1994
Mitochondrial protein targeting includes both intramitochondrial sorting of proteins encoded by the organellar genome and import and subsequent sorting of nuclear encoded precursor proteins. Only a few proteins are encoded by the mitochondrial genome and

Membrane proteins in the outer mebrane of plastids and mitochondria [PDF]

, 2006
Channels of the plastid and mitochondrial outer membranes facilitate the turnover of molecules and ions via these membranes. Although channels have been studied many questions pertaining to the whole diversity of plastid and mitochondrial channels in ...

HHomp—prediction and classification of outer membrane proteins [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2009
Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) are the transmembrane proteins found in the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and plastids. Most prediction methods have focused on analogous features, such as alternating hydrophobicity patterns. Here, we start from the observation that almost all beta-barrel OMPs are related by common ancestry.

Bacterial porin disrupts mitochondrial membrane potential and sensitizes host cells to apoptosis [PDF]

, 2009
The bacterial PorB porin, an ATP-binding beta-barrel protein of pathogenic Neisseria gonorrhoeae, triggers host cell apoptosis by an unknown mechanism. PorB is targeted to and imported by host cell mitochondria, causing the breakdown of the mitochondrial

Translocation arrest by reversible folding of a precursor protein imported into mitochondria [PDF]

, 1989
Passage of precursor proteins through translocation contact sites of mitochondria was investigated by studying the import of a fusion protein consisting of the NH2-terminal 167 amino acids of yeast cytochrome b2 precursor and the complete mouse ...

Outer membrane vesicles and the outer membrane protein OmpU govern Vibrio cholerae biofilm matrix assembly

mBio
Biofilms are matrix-encased microbial communities that increase the environmental fitness and infectivity of many human pathogens including Vibrio cholerae. Biofilm matrix assembly is essential for biofilm formation and function.

The expression of outer membrane proteins for crystallization

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2003
The production of sufficient amounts of chemically and conformationally homogenous protein is a major requirement for successful crystallization and structure determination. With membrane proteins, this constitutes a particular problem because the membrane volume is limited and the organisms are usually very sensitive to changes in membrane properties ...
