Properties of a Pseudomonas stutzeri outer membrane channel-forming protein (NosA) required for production of copper-containing N2O reductase.
A protein (NosA) in the outer membrane of Pseudomonas stutzeri that is required for copper to be inserted into N2O reductase has been extracted and purified to homogeneity. The purified protein could form channels in black lipid bilayers. Like N2O reductase, NosA contained copper and was only made anaerobically. In contrast to N2O reductase, its synthesis was repressed by exogenous copper (but ...
متن کاملProtein C (OprC) of the outer membrane of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a copper-regulated channel protein.
Protein C (OprC) of the outer membrane of Pseudomonas aeruginosa forms small channels, as assayed by the liposome swelling method. We report here that OprC functions as a channel-forming and copper-binding protein. OprC purified to homogeneity formed a channel in planar lipid bilayers with an ion conductance of about 200 pS in 1 M NaCl. Cloning and sequencing of the gene encoding OprC revealed ...
متن کاملOuter membrane protein A of Escherichia coli inserts and folds into lipid bilayers by a concerted mechanism.
Unfolded outer membrane protein A (OmpA) of Escherichia coli spontaneously inserts and refolds into lipid bilayers upon dilution of denaturing urea. In the accompanying paper, we have developed a new technique, time-resolved distance determination by fluorescence quenching (TDFQ), which is capable of monitoring the translocation across lipid bilayers of fluorescence reporter groups such as tryp...
متن کاملOuter membrane proteins of Pseudomonas.
In this review, we describe the outer membrane proteins of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and related strains from the Pseudomonas fluorescens rRNA homology group of the Pseudomonadaceae, with emphasis on the physiological function and biochemical characteristics of these proteins. The use of opr (for outer membrane protein) is proposed as the genetic designation for the P. aeruginosa outer membrane pr...
متن کاملLinker-insertion mutagenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane protein OprF.
The oprF gene, expressing Pseudomonas aeruginosa major outer membrane protein OprF, was subjected to semi-random linker mutagenesis by insertion of a 1.3 kb Hincll kanamycin-resistance fragment from plasmid pUC4KAPA into multiple blunt-ended restriction sites in the oprF gene. The kanamycin-resistance gene was then removed by Pstl digestion, which left a 12 nucleotide pair linker residue. Nine ...
