BamA β16C strand and periplasmic turns are critical for outer membrane protein insertion and assembly.

The Biochemical journal - 21 Nov 2017

Gu Yinghong, Zeng Yi, Wang Zhongshan, Dong Changjiang

Abstract excerpt

Outer membrane (OM) β-barrel proteins play important roles in importing nutrients, exporting wastes and conducting signals in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts. The outer membrane proteins (OMPs) are inserted and assembled into the OM by OMP85 family proteins. In Escherichia coli, the β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) contains four lipoproteins such as BamB, BamC, BamD and BamE, and one OMP...
