Conformational Changes That Coordinate the Activity of BamA and BamD Allowing β-Barrel Assembly

Most integral outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Gram-negative bacteria, such as , assume a β-barrel structure. The β-barrel assembly machine (Bam), a five-member complex composed of β-barrel OMP BamA and four associated lipoproteins, BamB, BamC, BamD, and BamE, folds and inserts OMPs into the outer...
