BACTERIAL OUTER MEMBRANE VESICLES AND VACCINE APPLICATIONS [PDF]
Vaccines based on outer membrane vesicles (OMV) were developed more than 20 years ago against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B. These nano-sized structures exhibit remarkable potential for immunomodulation of immune responses and delivery of self ...

Proteomics of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Outer Membrane Vesicles. [PDF]
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral and systemic pathogen associated with aggressive forms of periodontitis and with endocarditis. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released by this species have been demonstrated to deliver effector proteins ...

Analysis of outer membrane vesicle associated proteins isolated from the plant pathogenic bacterium
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 ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis Outer Membrane Vesicles Mediate Coaggregation and Piggybacking of Treponema denticola and Lachnoanaerobaculum saburreum [PDF]
Porphyromonas gingivalis sheds outer membrane vesicles that contain several virulence factors, including adhesins. In this study, we investigated the ability of P.

Outer Membrane Vesicle Vaccine Platforms
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spontaneously released by many gram-negative bacteria during their growth and constitute an important virulence factor for bacteria, helping them to survive through harsh environmental conditions. Native OMVs, naturally-released from bacteria, are produced at a level too low for vaccine manufacturing, requiring ...

Opportunities for engineering Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMVs) using synthetic biology approaches [PDF]
Gram-negative bacteria naturally shed lipid vesicles, which contain complex molecular cargoes, from their outer membrane. These outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) have important biological functions relating to microbial stress responses, microbiome ...

Translocation and insertion of precursor proteins into isolated outer membranes of mitochondria [PDF]
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

Production of Outer Membrane Vesicles and Outer Membrane Tubes by Francisella novicida [PDF]
Francisella spp. are highly infectious and virulent bacteria that cause the zoonotic disease tularemia. Knowledge is lacking for the virulence factors expressed by Francisella and how these factors are secreted and delivered to host cells. Gram-negative bacteria constitutively release outer membrane vesicles (OMV), which may function in the delivery of

Outer membrane vesicle vaccines for Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a global health problem, and the development of a vaccine is considered essential for the effective control of gonorrhoea. The use of outer membrane vesicle vaccines to prevent N. gonorrhoeae infection has garnered considerable interest, and a recent study using a mouse model of experimental gonococcal ...
