Reconstitution of Bam Complex-Mediated Assembly of a Trimeric Porin into Proteoliposomes
mBio, 2021 Porins are a widespread family of homotrimers that represent a substantial fraction of the total protein located in the OM of many proteobacteria. These proteins facilitate the nonspecific diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane and strongly influence the susceptibility of bacteria to clinically used antibiotics.

Structural basis of outer membrane protein insertion by the BAM complex [PDF]
Nature, 2016 All Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts have outer membrane proteins (OMPs) that perform many fundamental biological processes. The OMPs in Gram-negative bacteria are inserted and folded into the outer membrane by the β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM). The mechanism involved is poorly understood, owing to the absence of a structure of

Overproducing the BAM complex improves secretion of difficult-to-secrete recombinant autotransporter chimeras [PDF]
Microbial Cell Factories, 2021 AbstractMonomeric autotransporters have been used extensively to transport recombinant proteins or protein domains to the cell surface of Gram-negative bacteria amongst others for antigen display. Genetic fusion of such antigens into autotransporters has yielded chimeras that can be used for vaccination purposes.

Assembly of Outer Membrane β-Barrel Proteins: the Bam Complex [PDF]
EcoSal Plus, 2011 The major class of integral proteins found in the outer membrane (OM) of E. coli and Salmonella adopt a β-barrel conformation (OMPs). OMPs are synthesized in the cytoplasm with a typical signal sequence at the amino terminus, which directs them to the secretion machinery (SecYEG) located in ...

An In Vitro Assay for Outer Membrane Protein Assembly by the BAM Complex [PDF]
, 2015 To elucidate the mechanism of a biochemical process it is often essential to reconstitute the reaction in vitro using the minimal set of factors required to drive the reaction to completion. Here, we describe a method to reconstitute the folding and membrane integration of bacterial outer membrane (OM) proteins that have a characteristic β-barrel ...
