OmpF Protein, E. coli, Recombinant (His & Myc)

Forms pores that allow passive diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane.; (Microbial infection) It is also a receptor for the bacteriophage T2. Is the major receptor for colicin E5.; (Microbial infection) A mixed OmpC-OmpF heterotrimer is the outer membrane receptor for toxin CdiA-EC536; polymorphisms in extracellular loops 4 and 5 of OmpC confer susceptibility to CdiA-EC536-mediated toxicity.
