Research AreasMicrobiology

Function

In elementary bodies (EBs, the infectious stage, which is able to survive outside the host cell) provides the structural integrity of the outer envelope through disulfide cross-links with the large cysteine-rich periplasmic protein and the major outer membrane porin. It has been described in publications as the Sarkosyl-insoluble COMC (Chlamydia outer membrane complex), and serves as the functional equivalent of peptidoglycan.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cell outer membrane (Lipid-anchor)

Product Specifications

Recombinant Chlamydia trachomatis Small cysteine-rich outer membrane protein OmcA (OmcA) is a recombinant protein from Chlamydia trachomatis (strain D/UW-3/Cx), expressed in E.coli, covering amino acids 19-88aa, with N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO-tagged tag, molecular weight 23.4kDa, purity Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE..
