Figures & data
Table I. Characteristics of the proteins of the omptin family.
Figure 1. Crystal structure and membrane topology of OmpT (1I78). Adapted and reproduced with permission from reference Citation[1]. (A) Front and side views of OmpT based on its crystal structure. (B) Topology model of OmpT. Amino acids in squares form β-strands. Periplasmic loops are labeled T1–T5. Loops exposed to the extracellular space are labeled L1–L5. The position of outer membrane is highlighted in gray. This Figure is reproduced in color in Molecular Membrane Biology online.
