The Formation of <i>β</i>-Strand Nine (<i>β</i><sub>9</sub>) in the Folding and Insertion of BamA from an Unfolded Form into Lipid Bilayers
Transmembrane proteins span lipid bilayer membranes and serve essential functions in all living cells. Membrane-inserted domains are of either α-helical or <i>β</i>-barrel structure. Despite their biological importance, the biophysical mechanisms of the folding and insertion of proteins...
