Structural basis for lipid and copper regulation of the ABC transporter MsbA

The bacterial ABC transporter MsbA is essential for lipopolysaccharide biogenesis. Here, the authors apply native mass spectrometry, X-ray crystallography, cryo-EM and biochemical approaches to characterize the structural basis and functional roles of MsbA binding to copper and specific lipids.
