Standard Name

ompA

Gene Synonym(s)

ECK0948, b0957, JW0940, con, tolG, tut[1], tut

Product Desc.

outer membrane protein 3a (II*;G;d)[2][3]

Outer membrane protein A; Outer membrane porin A; T-even phage receptor; weak porin; homodimer, abundant cell surface protein[4]

Discovered to influence biofilm formation[5]

OmpA inhibits cellulose production through the CpxRA stress response system, and this reduction in cellulose increases biofilm formation on hydrophobic surfaces[6]. Deletion of ompA increases cellulose which decreases biofilm formation on hydrophobic surfaces[6].

Notes

[back to top]


OmpA is required for colicins K and L and the stabilization of mating aggregates. OmpA is elevated 5X during growth at 4C (enabled by Oleispira antarctica Cpn10/60 transgene). OmpA expression is elevated during biofilm formation (Orme, 2006). OmpA is required for biofilm formation under some condtions. Translation of OmpF is inhibited by the rseX sRNA. Alkali-inducible Binds TrxA (Kumar, 2004). Perhaps because it is so abundant, OmpA is found in some inner membrane preparations.[4]
