Description
The LamB protein is a trimeric outer membrane (OM) protein of E. coli sustaining
two biological functions. It is used as a surface receptor by a
number of coliphages, including phage l , and participates
in the transport of maltose and maltodextrins across
the OM .
Notes
LamB tolerates insertions of long heterologous
peptides at a permissive loop (between structural codons 153
and 154) exposed to the external medium without a loss of
function ). Successful attempts to introduce
polyhistidine tails to LamB have been reported
