Antigenic Properties of HpaA and Omp18, Two Outer Membrane Proteins ofHelicobacter pylori
21 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) are incorporated into the outer plasma membrane of Helicobacter pylori and are important for, e.g., ion transport, adherence, structural and osmotic stability, and bacterial virulence but may also be antigenic due to their surface exposure. Previous proteome-based approaches with H. pylori lysates determined a strong serological reaction towards two H. pylori OMPs, HpaA (TIGR...
