Outer membrane protein A of Escherichia coli contributes to invasion of brain microvascular endothelial cells.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jan 1996

Prasadarao N V, Wass C A, Weiser J N, Stins M F, Huang S H, Kim K S

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli is the most common gram-negative bacteria causing meningitis during the neonatal period, but is unclear what microbial factors mediate traversal of E. coli across the blood-brain barrier. Outer membrane protein A (OmpA), a highly conserved 35-kDa protein, was examined for its rol...
