Analysis of outer membrane vesicle associated proteins isolated from the plant pathogenic bacterium
BMC Microbiology, 2008 Background Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are released from the outer membrane of many Gram-negative bacteria. These extracellular compartments are known to transport compounds involved in cell-cell signalling as well as virulence associated proteins, e ...

Charge Asymmetry in the Proteins of the Outer Membrane [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2013 Abstract Motivation: Outer membrane beta-barrels (OMBBs) are the proteins found in the outer membrane of bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts. There are thousands of beta-barrels reported in genomic databases with ∼2–3% of the genes in gram-negative bacteria encoding these proteins.

Translocation and insertion of precursor proteins into isolated outer membranes of mitochondria [PDF]
, 1993 Nuclear-encoded proteins destined for mitochondria must cross the outer or both outer and inner membranes to reach their final sub- mitochondrial locations. While the inner membrane can translocate preproteins by itself, it is not known whether the outer

Protein-enriched outer membrane vesicles as a native platform for outer membrane protein studies [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2018 AbstractMost studies characterizing the folding, structure, and function of membrane proteins rely on solubilized or reconstituted samples. Whereas solubilized membrane proteins lack the functionally important lipid membrane, reconstitution embeds them into artificial lipid bilayers, which lack characteristic features of cellular membranes including ...

Solute channels of the outer membrane: from bacteria to chloroplasts [PDF]
, 2007 Chloroplasts, unique organelles of plants, originated from endosymbiosis of an ancestor of today's cyanobacteria with a mitochondria-containing host cell. It is assumed that the outer envelope membrane, which delimits the chloroplast from the surrounding

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.

Outer membrane protein design [PDF]
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2017 Membrane proteins are the gateway to the cell. These proteins are also a control center of the cell, as information from the outside is passed through membrane proteins as signals to the cellular machinery. The design of membrane proteins seeks to harness the power of these gateways and signal carriers.

BMC Bioinformatics, 2004 Background Integral membrane proteins constitute about 20–30% of all proteins in the fully sequenced genomes. They come in two structural classes, the α-helical and the β-barrel membrane proteins, demonstrating different physicochemical characteristics ...

Proteomic Analysis of Outer Membrane Proteins from Salmonella Enteritidis Strains with Different Sensitivity to Human Serum. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Differential analysis of outer membrane composition of S. Enteritidis strains, resistant to 50% normal human serum (NHS) was performed in order to find factors influencing the resistance to higher concentrations of NHS. Ten S.
