The ATP binding cassette protein superfamily comprises ATPase enzymes which are, for the
most part, involved in transmembrane transport. Within this superfamily however, some …

Diarrhea is a leading cause of increased mortality in neonatal and young piglets. Aberration
of the gut microbiota is one important factor in the etiology of piglet diarrhea. However …

ABC-F proteins have evaded functional characterization even though they compose one of

Lipopolysaccharide is a major glycolipid component in the outer leaflet of the outer
membrane (OM), a peculiar permeability barrier of Gram-negative bacteria that prevents …

Abstract Motivation: The model bacterium Escherichia coli is among the best studied
prokaryotes, yet nearly half of its proteins are still of unknown biological function. This is …

Biological membranes define cells and cellular compartments and are essential in

Food preservation by the use of essential oils (EOs) is being extensively studied because of
the antimicrobial properties of their individual constituents (ICs). Three resistant mutants …

Various protein secretion systems of gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) are well known,
