THE MUTATION OF CONSERVATIVE ASP268 RESIDUE IN THE PEPTIDOGLYCAN-ASSOCIATED DOMAIN OF THE OMPA PROTEIN AFFECTS MULTIPLE ACINETOBACTER BAUMANNII VIRULENCE CHARACTERISTICS

The Mutation of Conservative Asp268 Residue in the Peptidoglycan-Associated Domain of the OmpA Protein Affects Multiple Acinetobacter baumannii Virulence Characteristics

Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial human pathogen of increasing concern due to its multidrug resistance profile.The outer membrane protein A (OmpA) is an abundant bacterial cell surface component involved in A.baumannii pathogenesis.It has been shown that the C-terminal domain of OmpA is located in the periplasm and non-covalently associates w
