Outer membrane porin C/OmpC Protein, E.coli (His-SUMO)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Outer membrane porin C (OmpC) functions as a channel, creating pores that facilitate passive diffusion of small molecules across the bacterial outer membrane. In the context of microbial infection, OmpC plays a role in supporting the entry of colicin E5 even in the absence of its primary receptor OmpF. Outer membrane porin C/OmpC Protein, E.coli (His-SUMO) is the recombinant E. coli-derived Outer membrane porin C/OmpC protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-SUMO labeled tag.

Description

Outer membrane porin C (OmpC) functions as a channel, creating pores that facilitate passive diffusion of small molecules across the bacterial outer membrane. In the context of microbial infection, OmpC plays a role in supporting the entry of colicin E5 even in the absence of its primary receptor OmpF.

Background

The Outer membrane porin C (OmpC) protein is a vital component of bacterial outer membranes, forming pores that facilitate the passive diffusion of small molecules. This porin is essential for the uptake of nutrients and other substances by the bacterial cell. Notably, OmpC plays a role in microbial infection, acting as a gateway for the entry of various molecules. Additionally, OmpC demonstrates functional versatility by supporting the entry of colicin E5, a bacteriocin, in the absence of its major receptor OmpF. This suggests that OmpC can serve as an alternative route for the internalization of specific substances, highlighting its adaptability and importance in bacterial membrane dynamics and defense mechanisms.
