Abstract: Protealysin is a thermolysinâlike protease of Serratia proteamaculans capable of specifically cleaving actin, which correlates with the invasive activity of these bacteria. Here, we show that inactivation of the protealysin gene does not inhibit invasion… read more here.

Abstract: The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria acts as an additional diffusion barrier for solutes and nutrients. It is perforated by outer membrane proteins (OMPs) that function most often as diffusion pores, but sometimes also as… read more here.
