OmpA-GFP

GFP is presented outside E. Coli as a positive control for protein presentation

Usage and Biology

This is a surface marker for E. coli, although it can serve other purposes.

We verified its membrane location by protease digestion and Western blotting.

Disappearance of green fluorescence suggests that GFP is predominantly on the outside of E. coli.

Fractionation and western blotting also suggests that the protein is predominantly on the membrane.
