Disulfide-linked oligomers of the major outer membrane protein of chlamydiae

Disulfide-linked oligomers of the major outer membrane protein of chlamydiae

W J Newhall et al. J Bacteriol. 1983 May.

Abstract

The major outer membrane protein of chlamydial elementary bodies was identified in dimer, trimer, and other multimeric forms. These natural multimers were stabilized by disulfide-mediated cross-linking. Such cross-linking of outer membrane proteins may play an important role in the formation and evolution of chlamydial cell wall structure.
