چکیده

Autotransporter biogenesis is dependent upon BamA, a central component of the β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) complex. In this report, we detail the role of the other BAM components (BamB-E). We identify the importance of BamD in autotransporter biogenesis and show that BamB, BamC, and BamE are not required.

Sequential and spatially restricted interactions of assembly factors with an autotransporter beta domain.

Autotransporters are bacterial virulence factors that consist of an N-terminal extracellular ("passenger") domain and a C-terminal β barrel domain ("β domain") that resides in the outer membrane. Here we used an in vivo site-specific photocrosslinking approach to gain insight into the mechanism by which the β domain is integrated into the outer membrane and the relationship between β domain ass...

The -Barrel Outer Membrane Protein Assembly Complex of Neisseria meningitidis

The evolutionarily conserved protein Omp85 is required for outer membrane protein (OMP) assembly in gram-negative bacteria and in mitochondria. Its Escherichia coli homolog, designated BamA, functions with four accessory lipoproteins, BamB, BamC, BamD, and BamE, together forming the -barrel assembly machinery (Bam). Here, we addressed the composition of this machinery and the function of its co...

Crystal structure of β-barrel assembly machinery BamCD protein complex.

The β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) complex of Escherichia coli is a multiprotein machine that catalyzes the essential process of assembling outer membrane proteins. The BAM complex consists of five proteins: one membrane protein, BamA, and four lipoproteins, BamB, BamC, BamD, and BamE. Here, we report the first crystal structure of a Bam lipoprotein complex: the essential lipoprotein BamD in...

Crystal structure of Escherichia coli BamB, a lipoprotein component of the β-barrel assembly machinery complex.

In Gram-negative bacteria, the BAM (β-barrel assembly machinery) complex catalyzes the essential process of assembling outer membrane proteins. The BAM complex in Escherichia coli consists of five proteins: one β-barrel membrane protein, BamA, and four lipoproteins, BamB, BamC, BamD, and BamE. Despite their role in outer membrane protein biogenesis, there is currently a lack of functional and s...

Activation of the Escherichia coli β-barrel assembly machine (Bam) is required for essential components to interact properly with substrate.

The outer membrane (OM) of gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli contains lipoproteins and integral β-barrel proteins (outer-membrane proteins, OMPs) assembled into an asymmetrical lipid bilayer. Insertion of β-barrel proteins into the OM is mediated by a protein complex that contains the OMP BamA and four associated lipoproteins (BamBCDE). The mechanism by which the Bam complex catal...
