Outer membrane protein U (OmpU) mediates adhesion of Vibrio mimicus to host cells via two novel N-terminal motifs.
Vibrio mimicus (V.mimicus) is a causative agent of ascites disease in aquatic animals. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the outer membrane protein U (OmpU) from V.mimicus is an immunoprotective antigen with six immunodominant linear B-cell epitopes. Although the N-terminus of OmpU contain...
