Transferrin binding protein B structure, function, and export in Neisseria gonorrhoeae
… of two transferrin binding proteins: TbpA and TbpB. TbpA is a TonB-dependent, outer membrane transporter and TbpB is a bilobed, surface exposed lipoprotein. TbpB can distinguish between apo- and holo-transferrin which is involved in increasing the efficiency of iron uptake through the Tbps. It …

Investigation of the Immunogenicity and Specificity of the Transferrin Binding Proteins from Bovine Pathogenic Bacteria
… TbpA and its associated surface lipoprotein TbpB. TbpA and TbpB have been studied for years as potential vaccine antigens. Recently, mutants of TbpB that do not bind transferrin have been shown to provide improved protection against infection compared to wild-type TbpB. In this thesis, I …

Thermodynamic Investigations of Metalloproteins: Metal as Probe and Protein as Probe
… their human host by expressing a receptor (TbpA/TbpB), which binds the human iron transport protein transferrin (Tf). Once iron crosses the outer membrane, ferric binding protein (FbpA) transports it across the periplasm to the cytosol. Focusing on the protein, we investigated the protein-protein …

The development of a new reporter system to study the interaction between FbpA and FbpBC
… transferrin binding proteins (TbpA and TbpB). This complex facilitates the release of iron from host transferrin and into the periplasm, where it binds to a periplasmic binding protein, ferric binding protein (FbpA). FbpA is part of the ABC transporter, FbpABC that transports iron from …
