A Bioinformatic Strategy for the Detection, Classification and Analysis of Bacterial Autotransporters
Autotransporters are secreted proteins that are assembled into the outer membrane of bacterial cells. The passenger domains of autotransporters are crucial for bacterial pathogenesis, with some remaining attached to the bacterial surface while others are released by proteolysis. An enigma remains as...
