Abstract excerpt
OmpG is a nonselective, pH dependent outer membrane protein from Escherichia coli. It consists of 281 residues, forming a 14-stranded β-sheet structure. In this study, OmpG is extended by 38 amino acids to produce a 16-stranded β-barrel (OmpG-16S). The resulting protein is investigated by IR-spectroscopy. The secondary structure, pH-dependent opening/closing mechanism, buffer accessibility and thermal stability...
