OmpF is a major outer membrane porin found in ''E. coli''. Mutations in the ''ompF'' gene result in a reduced sensitivity of the ''E. coli'' cell to proteins such as [[Colicin]]s, and also bacteriophages<ref> PMID: 3543211 </ref>. | |||

OmpF production is regulated by OmpR, a protein that is phosphorylated by EnvZ to induce DNA binding to the promotor region of OmpF, and repress transcription of OmpF<ref> PMID: 2668953 </ref><ref> PMID: 2656631 </ref>. | OmpF production is regulated by OmpR, a protein that is phosphorylated by EnvZ to induce DNA binding to the promotor region of OmpF, and repress transcription of OmpF<ref> PMID: 2668953 </ref><ref> PMID: 2656631 </ref>. | ||
