Reconstitution of bacterial autotransporter assembly using purified components
Autotransporters are a superfamily of bacterial virulence factors consisting of an N-terminal extracellular (‘passenger’) domain and a C-terminal β barrel (‘β’) domain that resides in the outer membrane (OM). The mechanism by which the passenger domain is secreted is poorly understood. Here we show...
