Chlamydophila pneumoniae is an intracellular pathogen accountable for various acute respiratory infections. C. pneumoniae has a gene cluster which encodes a putative outer membrane porin (aaxA), arginine decarboxylase (CPn1032 or aaxB) and a putative cytoplasmic membrane transporter (CPn1031 or aaxC). Therefore, it is of interest to document a molecular protein model of porin AaxA from Chlamydia pneumonia to gain structure to functional insight on the protein.

Most chlamydial strains have a pyruvoyl-dependent decarboxylase protein that converts L-arginine to agmatine. However, chlamydiae do not produce arginine, so they must import it from their host. Chlamydophila pneumoniae has a gene cluster encoding a putative outer membrane porin (CPn1033 or aaxA), an arginine decarboxylase (CPn1032 or aaxB), and a putative cytoplasmic membrane transporter (CPn1031 or aaxC).
