Function
BAMA_ECOLI Part of the outer membrane protein assembly complex, which is involved in assembly and insertion of beta-barrel proteins into the outer membrane. Constitutes, with BamD, the core component of the assembly machinery.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The outer membrane structure is common in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts, and contains outer membrane beta-barrel proteins (OMPs) that are essential interchange portals of materials(1-3). All known OMPs share the antiparallel beta-strand topology(4), implicating a common evolutionary origin and conserved folding mechanism. Models have been proposed for bacterial beta-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) to initiate OMP folding(5,6); however, mechanisms by which BAM proceeds to complete OMP assembly remain unclear. Here we report intermediate structures of BAM assembling an OMP substrate, EspP, demonstrating sequential conformational dynamics of BAM during the late stages of OMP assembly, which is further supported by molecular dynamics simulations. Mutagenic in vitro and in vivo assembly assays reveal functional residues of BamA and EspP for barrel hybridization, closure and release. Our work provides novel insights into the common mechanism of OMP assembly.
