Human immune responses to oral microorganisms: patterns of systemic antibody levels to Bacteroides species.

abstract：:Outer membrane porin genes of Salmonella typhimurium, including ompC, ompF, and tppB, are regulated by the products of ompB, a two-component regulatory locus encoding OmpR and EnvZ. S. typhimurium ompR mutants are attenuated in mice, but to date no one has studied the intracellular trafficking of S. typhimurium porin-...
