Proteomic analysis of outer membrane vesicles from the probiotic strain <i>Escherichia coli</i> Nissle 1917
4 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) is a probiotic used for the treatment of intestinal disorders. EcN improves gastrointestinal homeostasis and microbiota balance; however, little is known about how this probiotic delivers effector molecules to the host. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are constitutively produced by Gram-negative bacteria and have a relevant role in bacteria-host interactions. Using 1D SDS-PAGE...
