The porin proteins of the pathogenic Neisseria species, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis, are important as serotyping antigens, putative vaccine components, and for their proposed role in the intracellular colonization of humans. A three-dimensional structural homology model for Neisseria porins was generated from Escherichia coli porin structures and N. meningitidis PorA and Po...
The permeability of the outer membrane of Escherichia coli to hydrophilic compounds is controlled by porin channels. Electrophysiological experiments showed that polyamines inhibit ionic flux through cationic porins when applied to either side of the membrane. Externally added polyamines, such as cadaverine, decrease porin-mediated fluxes of beta-lactam antibiotics in live cells. Here we tested...
Eleven genotypically related Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates were obtained from 11 patients. All isolates were resistant to third-generation cephalosporins due to the production of SHV-2a extended-spectrum beta-lactamase. Comparison of the outer membrane protein profiles revealed one isolate that lacked porins. This porin-deficient isolate was also resistant to cefoxitin (MIC 128 microg ml(-1)) ...
Porins from outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria have a highly stable structure. Our previous studies on porin from Paracoccus denitrificans showed that the outer membrane protein porin is extremely stable toward heat, pH, and chemical denaturants. The major question we have addressed in this paper is whether the high stability of porin is a consequence of the beta-barrel structure and whet...
The Escherichia coli envelope-stress response is a sensor system that increases transcription of stress genes in the cytoplasm when misfolded porins are detected in the periplasm. This response is initiated by DegS cleavage of the periplasmic domain of RseA, a transmembrane protein. Additional proteolysis of transmembrane and cytoplasmic portions of RseA then frees the sigma(E) transcription fa...
Analysis of the codon usage of genes coding for the structural components of the outer membrane in Escherichia coli, is consistent with the requirement for high expression of these genes. Because porins (which constitute the major protein component of the outer membrane), and LPS (which constitute the major outermost constituent of the outer membrane), are synthesized from genes displaying wide...
In general, the method of choice to characterize the conductance properties of channel-forming bacterial porins is electrophysiology. Here, the classical method is to reconstitute single porins into planar lipid bilayers to derive functional information from the observed channel conductance. In addition to an estimated pore size, ion selectivity or transport properties in general are of importa...
Although TroA (Tromp1) was initially reported to be a Treponema pallidum outer membrane protein with porin-like properties, subsequent studies have suggested that it actually is a periplasmic substrate-binding protein involved in the transport of metals across the treponemal cytoplasmic membrane. Here we conducted additional physicochemical studies to address the divergent viewpoints concerning...
