Outer Membrane Protein A (OmpA)



Description

Outer membrane protein A (OmpA) is a 35 kDa transmembrane protein found in many enterobacteria. It is responsible for maintaining the stability of the bacterial membrane and cell signaling. [1]

Biology

In E. coli, the β-barrel conformation of OmpA is composed of extracellular loops that help play a role in the detection of outer membrane stress and binding of extracellular molecules. OmpA also serves as a porin channel that regulates water transport within the bacterial cell. [2]

Usage

In our project, the sequence of OmpA protein was used to construct the OmpA/OprF chimeric protein.
