MOMP Protein, Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L2, Recombinant (His & SUMO)

In elementary bodies (EBs, the infectious stage, which is able to survive outside the host cell) provides the structural integrity of the outer envelope through disulfide cross-links with the small cysteine-rich protein and the large cysteine-rich periplasmic protein. It has been described in publications as the Sarkosyl-insoluble COMC (Chlamydia outer membrane complex), and serves as the functional equivalent of peptidoglycan.; Permits diffusion of specific solutes through the outer membrane. MOMP Protein, Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L2, Recombinant (His & SUMO) is expressed in E. coli expression system with N-6xHis-SUMO tag. The predicted molecular weight is 56.3 kDa and the accession number is P06597.
