Proteases represent the class of enzymes which occupy a pivotal position with respect to
their physiological roles as well as their commercial applications. They perform both …

The linkage map of Escherichia coli K-12 depicts the arrangement of genes on the circular
chromosome of this organism. The basic units of the map are minutes, determined by the …

Bacterial outer membrane proteins are supposed to span the membrane repeatedly, mostly
in the form of amphipathic β-sheets. The last ten C-terminal amino acid residues of PhoE …

The outer membrane protein contents of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strains
with PhoP/PhoQ regulon mutations were compared by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis …

This map is an update of the edition 9 map by Berlyn et al.(MKB Berlyn, KB Low, and KE
Rudd, p. 1715–1902, in FC Neidhardt et al., ed., Escherichia coli and Salmonella: cellular …

Lambdoid phages constitute a group of bacteriophages which are naturally related to the
temperate phage lambda, an indispensible tool in the study of gene regulation and …

Here we describe a high-throughput, quantitative method for the isolation of enzymes with
novel substrate specificities from large libraries of protein variants. Protein variants are …

The Escherichia coli outer membrane protease OmpT (protease VII) has been shown to
degrade several proteins in vitro, but its function in vivo is uncertain. We demonstrate that …

Escherichia coli cells were found to contain a novel outer membrane-associated protease,
designated protease VII (K. Sugimura and N. Higashi, J. Bacteriol. 170: 3650-3654, 1988) …

The omptins are a family of enterobacterial surface proteases/adhesins that share high
sequence identity and a conserved β-barrel fold in the outer membrane. The omptins are …
