Function

BAMC_ECOLI Part of the outer membrane protein assembly complex, which is involved in assembly and insertion of beta-barrel proteins into the outer membrane. Nonessential member of the complex that stabilizes the interaction between the essential proteins BamA and BamD.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00924]^{[1] [2] [3]}
