The OmpA Antibody (PACO61838) is a polyclonal antibody designed for research involving OmpA, a protein found in the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria. The antibody, raised in rabbits, has high reactivity with OmpA and is suitable for use in various research applications, including Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Its ability to bind specifically to OmpA makes it a valuable tool for studying the role of this protein in bacterial pathogenesis and antibiotic resistance.OmpA is a key virulence factor in gram-negative bacteria, playing a crucial role in host cell invasion and immune evasion.
Research into OmpA is essential for understanding the mechanisms by which bacteria cause infection and developing new strategies for combating antibiotic-resistant pathogens. The OmpA Antibody (PACO61838) provides researchers with a reliable and specific tool for investigating the function and expression of OmpA in various bacterial species, making it an indispensable resource for microbiology and infectious disease studies.

Background:
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 (By similarity).
Synonyms:
Major outer membrane porin (MOMP), ompA, omp1L2
