Bacterial Outer Membranes and Interactions with Membrane Proteins [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2015
Because the bacteria's outer membrane (OM) acts as an effective barrier against the permeation of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic compounds, gram-negative cell permeation is one of the biggest challenges to the discovery of novel antibiotics for bacterial infections and antibiotic resistance worldwide.

The Fluidity of the Bacterial Outer Membrane Is Species Specific

BioEssays, 2020
AbstractThe outer membrane (OM) is an essential barrier that guards Gram‐negative bacteria from diverse environmental insults. Besides functioning as a chemical gatekeeper, the OM also contributes towards the strength and stiffness of cells and allows them to sustain mechanical stress. Largely influenced by studies of Escherichia coli, the OM is viewed

Enzymology of lipid A palmitoylation in bacterial outer membranes [PDF]

Journal of Endotoxin Research, 2004
The enzymology of palmitate addition to lipid A can be traced to the early discovery of monosaccharide lipid A precursors, but the functional importance of lipid A palmitoylation in bacterial resistance to the host immune response has emerged only recently.

Role of Outer Membrane Vesicles in Bacterial Physiology and Host Cell Interactions

Infectious Microbes & Diseases, 2020
. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spherical particles shed from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, which contain the typical components present in the outer membrane, although enrichment of specific molecules may occur, and furthermore a ...
