Outer Membrane Vesicle-Host Cell Interactions [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2019 ABSTRACT Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanosized proteoliposomes derived from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. They are ubiquitously produced both in culture and during infection and are now recognized to play crucial roles during host-microbe interactions.

The effect of imipenem and diffusible signaling factors on the secretion of outer membrane vesicles and associated Ax21 proteins in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia [PDF]
, 2015 Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are small nanoscale structures that are secreted by bacteria and that can carry nucleic acids, proteins, and small metabolites. They can mediate intracellular communication and play a role in virulence.

Bacterial outer membrane vesicle-based cancer nanovaccines
Cancer Biology & Medicine, 2022 Tumor vaccines, a type of personalized tumor immunotherapy, have developed rapidly in recent decades. These vaccines evoke tumor antigen-specific T cells to achieve immune recognition and killing of tumor cells. Because the immunogenicity of tumor antigens alone is insufficient, immune adjuvants and nanocarriers are often required to enhance anti-tumor

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

Outer envelope membranes from chloroplasts are isolated as right-side-out vesicles [PDF]
, 1992 Outer envelope membranes were isolated from purified chloroplasts of pea leaves. The sidedness of the vesicles was analyzed by (i) aqueous polymer-two phase partitioning, (ii) the effect of limited proteolysis on the outer-envelope proteins (OEP) 86 and ...

Characterization of Translocation Contact Sites Involved in the Import of Mitochondrial Proteins [PDF]
, 1987 Import of proteins into the mitochondrial matrix requires translocation across two membranes. Translocational intermediates of mitochondrial proteins, which span the outer and inner membrane simultaneously and thus suggest that translocation occurs in ...

Genome-Wide Assessment of Outer Membrane Vesicle Production in Escherichia coli. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The production of outer membrane vesicles by Gram-negative bacteria has been well documented; however, the mechanism behind the biogenesis of these vesicles remains unclear.

Porphyromonas gingivalis Outer Membrane Vesicles Increase Vascular Permeability [PDF]
Journal of Dental Research, 2020 Periodontitis is increasingly associated with increased risk of cardiovascular and other systemic diseases. The Gram-negative anaerobe, Porphyromonas gingivalis, is a key periodontal pathogen, and several lines of evidence link the presence of this bacterium in the circulation with vascular disease.
