Pro-OmpA that is synthesized in vitro can assemble into bacterial inner membrane vesicles in the presence of ATP and NADH. We have purified pro-OmpA to determine which additional soluble proteins are necessary for its membrane assembly. [35S]Pro-OmpA was bound to Sepharose-linked antibody to OmpA, then eluted with 8 M urea and chromatographed on an anion-exchange resin in 8 M urea. This pro-Omp...
Outer membrane protein A (OmpA) is a multifaceted predominant outer membrane protein of Escherichia coli and other Enterobacteriaceae whose role in the pathogenesis of various bacterial infections has recently been recognized. Here, the role of OmpA on the virulence of Shigella flexneri has been investigated. An ompA mutant of wild-type S. flexneri 5a strain M90T was constructed (strain HND92) ...
The basic biochemical and biophysical principles by which chaperone-bound membrane proteins are targeted to the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria for insertion and folding are unknown. Here we compare spontaneous folding of outer membrane protein A (OmpA) of Escherichia coli from its urea-unfolded form and from the complex with its periplasmic chaperone Skp into lipid bilayers. Skp facil...
We have studied the folding pathway of a beta-barrel membrane protein using outer membrane protein A (OmpA) of Escherichia coli as an example. The deletion of the gene of periplasmic Skp impairs the assembly of outer membrane proteins of bacteria. We investigated how Skp facilitates the insertion and folding of completely unfolded OmpA into phospholipid membranes and which are the biochemical a...
Previously we discovered that OmpA of Escherichia coli increases biofilm formation on polystyrene surfaces (González Barrios et al., Biotechnol Bioeng, 93:188-200, 2006a). Here we show OmpA influences biofilm formation differently on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces since it represses cellulose production which is hydrophilic. OmpA increased biofilm formation on polystyrene, polypropylene, ...
Antibiotic resistant Escherichia coli strains are becoming more common recently. OmpA is a very important antigen protein of E. coli, which consists of two separate domains, N-terminal and C-terminal domain. The N-terminal domain contains eight βbarrel regions that plays important roles in the multifaceted functions of OmpA. In the present study, we cloned a mutant OmpA gene from a multi-antibi...
The ompA gene, encoding the 42-kDa major antigenic outer membrane protein OmpA of Riemerella anatipestifer, the etiololgical agent of septicemia anserum exsudativa, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Recombinant OmpA displayed a molecular mass similar to that predicted from the nucleotide sequence of the ompA gene but lower than that observed in total cell lysates of R. anatipestifer...
The bacterial outer membrane protein OmpA is one of the few membrane proteins whose structure has been solved both by X-ray crystallography and by NMR. Crystals were obtained in the presence of detergent, and the NMR structure is of the protein in a detergent micelle. We have used 10 ns duration molecular dynamics simulations to compare the behaviour of OmpA in a detergent micelle and in a phos...
Outer membrane protein A (OmpA), a major structural protein of the outer membrane of Escherichia coli, consists of an N-terminal 8-stranded beta-barrel transmembrane domain and a C-terminal periplasmic domain. OmpA has served as an excellent model for studying the mechanism of insertion, folding, and assembly of constitutive integral membrane proteins in vivo and in vitro. The function of OmpA ...
B cells are critically important in combating bacterial infections and their differentiation into plasma cells and memory cells aids bacterial clearance and long-lasting immunity conferred by essentially all vaccines. Outer membrane protein A (OmpA) of Shigella flexneri 2a has been demonstrated to induce the production of IgG and IgA in vivo following immunization of mice through intranasal rou...
