1.B.38.1.1









Large non-selective MSP porin of 574 aas, with short lived large ion conduction (Mathers et al. 1996). Contains  MOSP_N and MOSP_C domains which exists as periplasmic hydrophilic monomers and trimeric porins, respectively. MOSP_C, destined for the OM, follows the canonical BAM pathway, but formation of a stable periplasmic conformer of MOSP_N involves an export-related, folding pathway not present in E. coli (Puthenveetil et al. 2017).

Major outer membrane sheath protein, Msp or MOSP, of 543 aas.  Msp has a bipartide structure and exists as periplasmic and outer membrane-integrated trimeric conformers (Anand et al. 2013).  The N-terminal domain (residues 77 - 286) does not insert into the membrane, but the C-terminal domain (residues 332 - 543) does to form pores (Anand et al. 2013).  It resembles the surface exposed variable antigen, TprK (Giacani et al. 2012) which plays roles in immune evasion and persistence.  MOSP is one of its principal cell surface virulence determinants. Bioinformatics predicts that MOSP consists of N- and C-terminal domains, MOSPN and MOSPC. Biophysical analysis of constructs refolded in vitro demonstrated that MOSPC, which has porin activity, forms amphiphilic trimers, while MOSPN forms an extended hydrophilic monomer (Puthenveetil et al. 2017). It is a also a pore-forming cytotoxin that inserts into animal cell membranes (see TC# 1.C.128.1.1), and is a constituent of the outer membrane lipoprotein-protease complex of the Dentilisin Family (TC# 9.B.355).

1.B.38.1.5









Outer membrane bipartite trimeric porin of 598 aas with an N-terminal MOSPN domain (in the periplasm), and a C-terminal MOSPC domain (cell surface localized), TprC/TprD.  The MOSPN domain confers envelope integrity by anchoring the C-terminal porin domain to periplasmic structural constituents (Anand et al. 2015). Selection pressures exerted within human populations drive T. pallidum subsp. pallidum TrpC diversity by mutation of loop regions and by recombination(Kumar et al. 2018).

Outer membrane maltooligosaccharide uptake protein, SusE, of 387 aas and 1 N-terminal TMS.  It forms a complex with the SusC porin (TC# 1.B.14.6.1), the SusD porin (TC# 1.B.38.1.10), the SusF porin (TC# 1.B.38.4.2) and SusG (α-amylase; TC# 8.A.9.1.3) in the outer membrane (Foley et al. 2018).  The complex binds starch and maltooligosaccharides (Cho and Salyers 2001).

1.B.38.4.2









Outer membrane protein, SusF, of 485 aas and 1 N-terminal TMS.  The protein has an N-terminal DUF5115 domain followed by two C-terminal CBM-SusEF-like domains. SusF mediates starch-binding (or maltooligosaccharde-binding) before transport into the periplasm for further degradation. SusE and SusF do not constitute the major starch-binding proteins in the starch degradative pathway. SusF has lower affinity for starch compared to SusE (Shipman et al. 2000). The 3-d structure of the complex has been determined (Cameron et al. 2012). The SusCDEFG complex in the outer membrane is described in more detail in TC# 1.B.38.4.1 (Foley et al. 2018).
