Web-Based Bioinformatics Analysis of TbpB from Actinobacillus pleuropneumonie L20 Strain

The transferring(Tf) receptor from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (App) is comprised of a surface exposed lipoprotein, Tf-binding protein B (TbpB), and an integral outer-membrane protein, Tf-binding protein A (TbpA), both of which are essential for survival in the host, and TbpB is required for the iron acquisition process in vivo. In this study. We analyzed the salient features of the TbpB gene and encoded protein of App L20 strain by bioinformatics tools and highlighted its important biological characterization, which. providing insights into the mechanism of Tf binding and the role of TbpB
