Soluble versions of outer membrane cytochromes function as exporters for heterologously produced cargo proteins

Microbial Cell Factories, 2019
This study reveals that it is possible to secrete truncated versions of outer membrane cytochromes into the culture supernatant and that these proteins can provide a basis for the export of heterologously produced proteins.

Comparative studies of Yersinia pestis outer membrane isolation techniques and their potential use in plague epidemiology Estudo comparativo de técnicas de isolamento de membrana externa de Yersinia pestis e seu uso na epidemiologia da peste

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1990
In the present study three techniques for obtaining outer membrane enriched fractions from Yersinia pestis were evaluated. The techniques analysed were: differential solubilization of the cytoplasmic membrane with Sarkosyl or Triton X-100, and ...

The structure of bacterial outer membrane proteins

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2002
Integral membrane proteins come in two types, alpha-helical and beta-barrel proteins. In both types, all hydrogen bonding donors and acceptors of the polypeptide backbone are completely compensated and buried while nonpolar side chains point to the membrane. The alpha-helical type is more abundant and occurs in cytoplasmic (or inner) membranes, whereas

Characterization of the key membrane protein cytochrome Cyc2 from Ghiorsea bivora

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study reports the first detailed biochemical analysis of Cyc2TAG1_1, a cytochrome protein involved in microbial iron oxidation. We produced and purified this enzyme in E. coli, then measured its iron‐oxidizing efficiency, and characterized its electrical and structural properties.

Protein import into chloroplasts: new aspects of a well-known topic [PDF]

, 2007
Protein import into plant chloroplasts is a fascinating topic that is being investigated by many research groups. Since the majority of chloroplast proteins are synthesised as precursor proteins in the cytosol, they have to be posttranslationally ...

Functional Versatility of Vibrio cholerae Outer Membrane Proteins

Applied Microbiology
A key feature that differentiates Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria is the outer membrane, an asymmetric membrane composed of lipopolysaccharides, phospholipids, lipoproteins and integral proteins, including the outer-membrane proteins (OMPs).

PHOSPHORYLATION/DEPHOSPHORYLATION OF MITOCHONDRIAL PROTEINS IN REDOX-SIGNALLING OF HIGHER PLANTS UNDER ABIOTIC STRESS CONDITIONS [PDF]

Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2012
We studied an impact of the widely spread intra-cellular signals Ca2+ and сAMP on activity of the protein phosphorylation in maize mitochondria. The use of the isolated mitochondria is a convenient model system for investigation of the different ...

Molecular and topological reorganizations in mitochondrial architecture interplay during Bax-mediated steps of apoptosis

eLife, 2019
During apoptosis, Bcl-2 proteins such as Bax and Bak mediate the release of pro-apoptotic proteins from the mitochondria by clustering on the outer mitochondrial membrane and thereby permeabilizing it.

Ultrafast visual detection of Streptococcus suis via HtpsC‐targeted LAMP–CRISPR–Cas12a coupled with lateral flow immunochromatography

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A rapid visual test combines DNA amplification, CRISPR–based target verification, and a lateral flow strip to detect Streptococcus suis. The assay gives results in about 45 min, reduces false‐positive interpretation, and does not require fluorescence equipment.

Leptospira interrogans endostatin-like outer membrane proteins bind host fibronectin, laminin and regulators of complement [PDF]

, 2007
The pathogenic spirochete Leptospira interrogans disseminates throughout its hosts via the bloodstream, then invades and colonizes a variety of host tissues.
