A molecular dynamics investigation of mono and dimeric states of the outer membrane enzyme OMPLA.
OMPLA is a phospholipase found in the outer membranes of many Gram-negative bacteria. Enzyme activation requires calcium-induced dimerisation plus bilayer perturbation. As the conformation of OMPLA in the different crystal forms (monomer versus dimer; with/without bound Ca(2+)) is remarkably similar...
