Abstract excerpt
Periplasmic molecular chaperone LolA and the inner membrane ATP binding cassette transporter LolCDE are essential for ATP-dependent release of outer membrane-directed lipoproteins from the inner membrane of Escherichia coli. A LolA(F47E) mutant carrying a Phe to Glu mutation at position 47 was defective in the release of lipoproteins from spheroplasts and proteoliposomes reconstituted with LolCDE. When incubated...
