Plasticity within the barrel domain of BamA mediates a hybrid-barrel mechanism by BAM
The β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) assists the folding and membrane insertion of bacterial outer membrane proteins. Here, the authors report structural characterization of BAM in lipid environment and in complex with the client protein EspP integrated into the barrel of BamA, providing insight in...
