Abstract excerpt
We have examined the comparative membrane interaction properties of synthetic peptides corresponding to the wild-type and an export-defective, mutated signal sequence from the Escherichia coli outer membrane protein, OmpA. As part of a collaborative study of the effects of various alterations on the function of the OmpA signal sequence and the biophysical properties of the corresponding synthetic peptides, we...
