Outer membrane protein assembly mediated by BAM-SurA complexes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe outer membrane is a formidable barrier that protects Gram-negative bacteria against environmental threats. Its integrity requires the correct folding and insertion of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) by the membrane-embedded β-barrel assembly machinery

Surface Antigens of the Syphilis Spirochete and Their Potential as Virulence Determinants
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1997 A unique physical feature of Treponema pallidum, the venereally transmitted agent of human syphilis, is that its outer membrane contains 100-fold less membrane-spanning protein than the outer membranes of typical gram-negative bacteria, a property that ...

Helicobacter pylori Outer Membrane Protein-Related Pathogenesis
Toxins, 2017 Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human stomach and induces inflammation, and in some cases persistent infection can result in gastric cancer. Attachment to the gastric mucosa is the first step in establishing bacterial colonization, and outer membrane ...
