Inter-membrane association of the Sec and BAM translocons for bacterial outer-membrane biogenesis

Inter-membrane association of the Sec and BAM translocons for bacterial outer-membrane biogenesis

The outer-membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is critical for surface adhesion, pathogenicity, antibiotic resistance and survival. The major constituent – hydrophobic β-barrel Outer-Membrane Proteins (OMPs) – are first secreted across the inner-membrane through the Sec-translocon for delivery to peri...
