The Escherichia coli DsbA protein is the major oxidative catalyst in the periplasm. Dartigalongue et al. (EMBO J., 19, 5980-5988, 2000) reported that null mutations in the ompL gene of E.coli fully suppress all phenotypes associated with dsbA mutants, i.e. sensitivity to the reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT) and the antibiotic benzylpenicillin, lack of motility, reduced alkaline phosphatase activity and...
