β-Barrel Assembly Machinery (BAM) Complex as Novel Antibacterial Drug Target
Molecules, 2023 The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is closely related to the pathogenicity and drug resistance of bacteria. Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) are a class of proteins with important biological functions on the outer membrane.

Effect of Energy Metabolism on Protein Motility in the Bacterial Outer Membrane [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2009 We demonstrate the energy dependence of the motion of a porin, the lambda-receptor, in the outer membrane of living Escherichia coli by single molecule investigations. By poisoning the bacteria with arsenate and azide, the bacterial energy metabolism was stopped.

Membrane proteins in the outer mebrane of plastids and mitochondria [PDF]
, 2006 Channels of the plastid and mitochondrial outer membranes facilitate the turnover of molecules and ions via these membranes. Although channels have been studied many questions pertaining to the whole diversity of plastid and mitochondrial channels in ...

Interactions between folding factors and bacterial outer membrane proteins [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2005 SummaryThe outer membrane is the first line of contact between Gram‐negative bacteria and their external environment. Embedded in the outer membrane are integral outer membrane proteins (OMPs) that perform a diverse range of tasks. OMPs are synthesized in the cytoplasm and are translocated across the inner membrane and probably diffuse through the ...

The structure of bacterial outer membrane proteins
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2002 Integral membrane proteins come in two types, alpha-helical and beta-barrel proteins. In both types, all hydrogen bonding donors and acceptors of the polypeptide backbone are completely compensated and buried while nonpolar side chains point to the membrane. The alpha-helical type is more abundant and occurs in cytoplasmic (or inner) membranes, whereas

Assembly of β-barrel proteins into bacterial outer membranes
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2014 Membrane proteins with a β-barrel topology are found in the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria and in the plastids and mitochondria of eukaryotic cells. The assembly of these membrane proteins depends on a protein folding reaction (to create the barrel) and an insertion reaction (to integrate the barrel within the outer membrane).

Selectivity in Lipid Binding to the Bacterial Outer Membrane Protein OmpF [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2000 The outer membrane porin OmpF from Escherichia coli has been reconstituted into lipid bilayers of defined composition, and fluorescence spectroscopy is used to characterize its interaction with the surrounding lipid. OmpF is a trimer within the membrane.
