Abstract:
ABSTRACT Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an essential component of the outer membrane (OM) in most gram-negative bacteria, and its structure and biosynthetic pathway are well known. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of transport and assembly of this molecule at the cell surface are poorly understood. The inner membrane (IM) transport protein MsbA is responsible for flipping LPS across the IM. Additional components of the LPS transport machinery downstream of MsbA have been identified, including the OM protein complex LptD/LptE (formerly Imp/RlpB), the periplasmic LptA protein, the IM-associated cytopla

ABSTRACTThe assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the outer leaflet of the outer membrane (OM) requires the transenvelope Lpt (lipopolysaccharide transport) complex, made inEscherichia coliof seven essential proteins located in the inner membrane (IM) (LptBCFG), periplasm (LptA), and OM (LptDE). At the IM, LptBFG constitute an unusual ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter, composed by the transmembrane LptFG proteins and the cytoplasmic LptB ATPase, which is thought to extract LPS from the IM and to provide the energy for its export across the periplasm to the cell surface.

Abstract:
Antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria remains one of the most pressing challenges to global public health. Blocking the transportation of lipopolysaccharides (LPS), a crucial component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, is considered a promising strategy for drug discovery. In the transportation process of LPS, two components of the LPS transport (Lpt) complex, LptA and LptC, are responsible for shuttling LPS across the periplasm to the outer membrane, highlighting their potential as targets for antibacterial drug development.

Inexpensive liposome-polymer transfection complexes (LPTCs) were developed and used as for DNA or protein delivery. The particle sizes of the LPTCs were in the range of 212.2 to 312.1 nm, and the zetapotential was +38.7 mV. LPTCs condensed DNA and protected DNA from DNase I digestion and efficiently delivered LPTC/DNA complexes in Balb/3T3 cells. LPTCs also enhanced the cellular uptake of antigen in mouse macrophage cells and stimulated TNF-αrelease in naïve mice splenocytes, both indicating the potential of LPTCs as adjuvants for vaccines.In vivostudies were performed usingH. pylorirelative h

Abstract:
The need for novel antibiotics has become imperative with the increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria in clinics. Acting as a permeability barrier, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) protects Gram-negative bacteria against drugs. LPS is synthesized in cells and transported to the outer membrane (OM) via seven lipopolysaccharide transport (Lpt) proteins (LptA–LptG). Of these seven Lpt proteins, LptC interacts with LptA to transfer LPS from the inner membrane (IM) to the OM, and assembly is aided by LptD/LptE. This interaction among the Lpt proteins is important for the bi

Abstract:
Gram-negative bacteria have a dense outer membrane (OM) coating of lipopolysaccharides, which is essential to their survival. This coating is assembled by the LPS (lipopolysaccharide) transport (Lpt) system, a coordinated seven-subunit protein complex that spans the cellular envelope. LPS transport is driven by an ATPase-dependent mechanism dubbed the “PEZ” model, whereby a continuous stream of LPS molecules is pushed from subunit to subunit. This review explores recent structural and functional findings that have elucidated the subunit-scale mechanisms of LPS transport, including the novel AB

AbstractLipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an essential component of the outer membranes (OM) of most Gram-negative bacteria, which plays a crucial role in protection of the bacteria from toxic compounds and harsh conditions. The LPS is biosynthesized at the cytoplasmic side of inner membrane (IM), and then transported across the aqueous periplasmic compartment and assembled correctly at the outer membrane. This process is accomplished by seven LPS transport proteins (LptA-G), but the transport mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we present findings by pull down assays in which the periplasmic

With the increasing resistance of many Gram-negative bacteria to existing classes of antibiotics, identifying new paradigms in antimicrobial discovery is an important research priority.

The objective of this work presented in this paper is to study the performance of low pressure turbines in detail by extensive numerical simulations. The numerical flow simulations were conducted using the general purpose code ANSYS CFX. Particular attention is focused on the loss development in axial direction within the flow passage of the cascade. It is shown that modern CFD tools are able to break down the integral loss of the turbine profile into its components depending on attached and separated flow areas.
