Abstract:
Protein import into the mitochondria is a result of a series of sequential binding interactions between a mitochondrial targeting signal and the translocation machinery of both mitochondrial membranes. The targeting signals contained within protein of the outer membrane are distinct from those which target proteins to other subcompartments. The transmembrane domain of the yeast outer membrane receptor protein yTom70 is capable of both targeting and inserting the protein into the outer membrane. The efficiency of this process is increased by the addition of a positively-charged region preceding

Magnetosomes are membranous organelles found in magnetotactic bacteria (MTB). The organelle consist of ferromagnetic crystals housed within a lipid bilayer chained together by an actin-like filament and allows MTB to orient within magnetic fields. The genetic information required to produce these organelles has been linked to four different operons, encoding for 30 genes. These membranous organelles and the magnetic minerals housed within have various biotechnological applications, therefore enhanced recombinant production of such structures in a model organism holds significant potential.

The outer membrane protein OmpA is one of the major outer membrane proteins in many species of bacteria, including the Yersiniae. Our goal was to explore the role of OmpA in Y. pestis. This encompasses the ability of Yersinia to infect and survive within macrophages, as well as to resist antimicrobial compounds. Our laboratory found that a delta ompA mutant is impaired in a macrophage-associated infectivity assay. We also found that OmpA might play a role in the ability of the bacteria to resist antimicrobial peptides, specifically polymyxin B. Aditionally, we assessed the differences in OmpA

Abstract:
A defining feature of living things is that they have an inside and an outside, and in order for all living cells to survive, whether they are part of a blue whale or a unicellular microscopic organism, they must have mechanisms to mediate exchange with their environment. Food and energy enters the cell, and material must also leave, such as the waste products of metabolism, or virulence factors from pathogenic organisms. Lipid membranes define these boundaries, but it is membrane proteins that mediate the exchange. Although lipid bilayers can self-assemble in vitro, the assembly of complex bi

Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Gram-negative bacteria travel from their site of synthesis in the cytoplasm, across the inner membrane and through the periplasm to the outer membrane (OM) prior to their folding to a functional form. To protect OMPs from misfolding or aggregation while traversing the periplasm a network of chaperones are employed. The OMPs must then reach the essential β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) complex, which is involved in inserting OMPs into the OM. This process occurs in the absence of chemical energy as the periplasm is devoid of ATP and in a highly dynamic enviro
