Increased Outer Membrane Vesicle Formation in a <i>Helicobacter pylori tolB</i> Mutant
9 Feb 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multiple studies have established the importance of the tol-pal gene cluster in bacterial cell membrane integrity and outer membrane vesicle (OMV) formation in Escherichia coli. In contrast, the functions of Tol-Pal proteins in pathogenic organisms, including those of the Epsilonproteobacteria, remain poorly if at all defined. The aim of this study was to characterize the roles of two key components...
