Key residues of S. flexneri OmpA mediate infection by bacteriophage Sf6.

Journal of molecular biology - 22 May 2015

Porcek Natalia B, Parent Kristin N

Abstract excerpt

Many viruses, including bacteriophage, have the inherent ability to utilize several types of proteinaceous receptors as an attachment mechanism to infect cells, yet the molecular mechanisms that drive receptor binding have not been elucidated. Using bacteriophage Sf6 and its host, Shigella flexneri, we investigated how Sf6 utilizes outer membrane protein A (OmpA) for infection. Specifically, we identified that...
