Surfactant-free purification of membrane protein complexes from bacteria: application to the staphylococcal penicillin-binding protein complex PBP2/PBP2a [PDF]
, 2014 Surfactant-mediated removal of proteins from biomembranes invariably results in partial or complete loss of function and disassembly of multi-protein complexes. We determined the capacity of styrene-co-maleic acid (SMA) co-polymer to remove components of

Penicillin-binding proteins in Borrelia burgdorferi [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1990 Penicillin-binding proteins were identified in Borrelia burgdorferi membranes. A 94-kilodalton penicillin-binding protein was the first to be labeled with tritiated penicillin and was the first band to disappear in a competition experiment. Its binding ability was destroyed when membranes were preboiled. In addition, several of these penicillin-binding

Studies on Resistance to Vegetative (Vip3A) and Crystal (Cry1A) Insecticidal Toxins of Bacillus thuringiensis in Heliothis virescens (Fabricius) [PDF]
, 2009 Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins expressed in commercial transgenic crop varieties are all δ-endotoxins (Cry toxins) but the identification of novel vegetative insecticidal proteins (Vip toxins) has extended the range of insecticidal proteins derived

Penicillin-binding proteins of Haemophilus ducreyi [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1989 The penicillin-binding protein (PBP) profile of Haemophilus ducreyi was determined by a whole-cell-labeling assay. Only two major PBPs, of molecular weights 90,000 (PBP 1) and 38,500 (PBP 2), were detected in six of eight strains studied. Competition binding experiments and the attendant morphological effects suggested that PBP 1 was either a ...

Penicillin-binding proteins in Proteus species [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1979 Penicillin-binding proteins in three species of Proteus, Proteus mirabilis, P. morganii, and P. rettgeri, were investigated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. Penicillin-binding proteins in these Proteus species were compared with those in Escherichia coli K-12.
