An alternative topological model for Escherichia coli OmpA.
The current topological model for the Escherichia coli outer membrane protein OmpA predicts eight N-terminal transmembrane segments followed by a long periplasmic tail. Several recent reports have raised serious doubts about the accuracy of this prediction. An alternative OmpA model has been constructed using (1) computer-aided predictions developed specifically to predict topology of bacterial...
متن کاملOmpA of uropathogenic Escherichia coli promotes postinvasion pathogenesis of cystitis.
Type 1 pilus directs bladder epithelial binding and invasion by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) in the initial stage of cystitis, but the bacterial determinants of postinvasion events in the pathogenesis of cystitis are largely undetermined. We show here that the UPEC outer membrane protein A (OmpA), a monomeric, major, integral protein component of the bacterial outer membrane, functions...
متن کاملAn outer membrane protein (OmpA) of Escherichia coli K-12 undergoes a conformational change during export.
Pulse-chase experiments were performed to follow the export of the Escherichia coli outer membrane protein OmpA. Besides the pro-OmpA protein, which carries a 21-residue signal sequence, three species of ompA gene products were distinguishable. One probably represented an incomplete nascent chain, another the mature protein in the outer membrane, and the third, designated imp-OmpA (immature pro...

با توجه به تحریم های بین المملی علیه صنعت بیمه ایران امکان استفاده از بازارهای بین المملی بیمه ای برای نفتکش های ایرانی وجود ندارد. از طرفی از آنجایی که یکی از نوآوری های اخیر استفاده از بازارهای مالی به منظور ریسک های فاجعه آمیز می باشد. از اینرو در این پایان نامه سعی شده است با استفاده از این نوآوری ها با طراحی اوراق اختیارات راهی نو جهت بیمه گردن نفت کش های ایرانی ارائه نمود. از آنجایی که بر...
A topological model for the general aromatic amino acid permease, AroP, of Escherichia coli.
The general aromatic amino acid permease, AroP, of Escherichia coli is responsible for the active transport of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan. A proposed topological model for the AroP permease, consisting of 12 hydrophobic transmembrane spans connected by hydrophilic loops, is very similar to that of the closely related phenylalanine-specific permease. The validity of this model and i...
