OMP Peptides Modulate the Activity of DegS Protease by Differential Binding to Active and Inactive Conformations
Upon sensing misfolded outer-membrane porins (OMPs) in the periplasm, the E. coli DegS protease cleaves RseA, a transmembrane regulator, transmitting a signal to activate cytoplasmic gene expression. Misfolding is detected by binding of normally inaccessible OMP sequences to the DegS-PDZ domain, whi...
