Distortion of the bilayer and dynamics of the BAM complex in lipid nanodiscs [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2020 The β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) catalyses the folding and insertion of β-barrel outer membrane proteins (OMPs) into the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria by mechanisms that remain unclear.

A modular BAM complex in the outer membrane of the alpha-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Mitochondria are organelles derived from an intracellular alpha-proteobacterium. The biogenesis of mitochondria relies on the assembly of beta-barrel proteins into the mitochondrial outer membrane, a process inherited from the bacterial ancestor ...

The evolution of new lipoprotein subunits of the bacterial outer membrane BAM complex.
Molecular Microbiology, 2012 The β-barrel assembly machine (BAM) complex is an essential feature of all bacteria with an outer membrane. The core subunit of the BAM complex is BamA and, in Escherichia coli, four lipoprotein subunits: BamB, BamC, BamD and BamE, also function in the ...

Experimental Methods for Studying the BAM Complex in Neisseria meningitidis
, 2015 Neisseria meningitidis is a human pathogen. It is intensively studied for host-pathogen interactions and vaccine development. However, its favorable growth properties, genetic accessibility, and small genome size also make it an excellent model organism ...

Improper Coordination of BamA and BamD Results in Bam Complex Jamming by a Lipoprotein Substrate [PDF]
mBio, 2019 The β-barrel assembly machinery, the Bam complex, is central to the biogenesis of integral outer membrane proteins (OMPs) as well as OMP-dependent surface-exposed lipoproteins, such as regulator of capsule synthesis protein F (RcsF).

Mechanism of outer membrane protein assembly by the Bam complex
, 2020 β-barrel integral membrane proteins perform important roles in the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria, and chloroplasts. In Gram-negative bacteria, the β-barrel assembly machine (Bam) complex accelerates the folding and membrane ...

Structure of a nascent membrane protein as it folds on the BAM complex
Nature, 2020 Mitochondria, chloroplasts and Gram-negative bacteria are encased in a double layer of membranes. The outer membrane contains proteins with a β-barrel structure1,2. β-Barrels are sheets of β-strands wrapped into a cylinder, in which the first strand is hydrogen-bonded to the final strand. Conserved multi-subunit molecular machines fold and insert these
