A novel transport mechanism for MOMP in Chlamydophila pneumoniae and its putative role in immune-therapy.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Atanu Francis O, Oviedo-Orta Ernesto, Watson Kimberly A

Abstract excerpt

Major outer membrane proteins (MOMPs) of Gram negative bacteria are one of the most intensively studied membrane proteins. MOMPs are essential for maintaining the structural integrity of bacterial outer membranes and in adaptation of parasites to their hosts. There is evidence to suggest a role for purified MOMP from Chlamydophila pneumoniae and corresponding MOMP-derived peptides in immune-modulation, leading to...
