Mechanism of outer membrane protein assembly by the Bam complex

Abstract The folding of transmembrane proteins into the outer membrane presents formidable challenges to Gram-negative bacteria. These proteins must migrate from the cytoplasm, through the inner membrane and into the periplasm, before being recognized by the β-barrel assembly machinery, which mediates efficient insertion of folded β-barrels into the outer membrane.

The folding of transmembrane proteins into the outer membrane presents formidable challenges to Gram-negative bacteria. These proteins must migrate from the cytoplasm, through the inner membrane and into the periplasm, before being recognized by the β-barrel assembly machinery, which mediates efficient insertion of folded β-barrels into the Abstract β-Barrel outer membrane proteins (OMPs) represent the major proteinaceous component of the outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria. These proteins perform key roles in cell structure and morphology, nutrient acquisition, colonization and invasion, and protection against external toxic threats such as antibiotics. To become The 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 (BAM). Unfolded OMPs are delivered to BAM by

Furthermore, the membrane insertion of OMPs in vivo is catalyzed by a heterooligomer called the β- b arrel a ssembly m achinery (Bam) complex. To determine the role of lipids in the assembly of OMPs under more physiological conditions, we exploited an assay in which the Bam complex mediates their insertion into membrane vesicles. 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 the inne

Assembly of a model OM protein catalyzed by the BAM complex and SurA. (a). EspP (46 + β) is a ~36 kD truncated form of the autotransporter EspP. Upon insertion into the OM EspP (46 + β) folds into a β-barrel structure. An α-helix traverses and protrudes through the extracellular side of the β-barrel pore. The protein is then rapidly cleaved into a 46-residue (~5 kD) “passenger Gram-negative bacteria contain a double membrane which serves for both protection and for providing nutrients for viability. The outermost of these membranes is called the outer membrane (OM), and it contains a host of fully integrated membrane proteins The past 5 years have heralded the discovery of a net – work of proteins responsible for folding and inserting OMPs into the outer membrane. The core complex is now known as the β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM). The first structures of components of this complex have recently been solved and are shedding light on how β-barrels are built in vivo.

β-Barrel Membrane Protein Assembly by the Bam Complex

The structural basis of the late-stage intermediate assembly of outer membrane β-barrel proteins mediated by the bacterial β-barrel assembly machinery is determined. The folding of transmembrane proteins into the outer membrane presents formidable challenges to Gram-negative bacteria. These proteins must migrate from the cytoplasm, through the inner membrane and into the periplasm, before being recognized by the β-barrel assembly machinery, which mediates efficient insertion of folded β-barrels into the Abstract Gram-negative bacteria have a highly evolved cell wall with two membranes constituting a cell envelope consisting of an inner membrane (IM), a periplasmic space, and an outer membrane (OM). Proteins in the bacterial IM contain one or more hydrophobic α-helical transmembrane-spanning domains (TMDs).

Abstract The proper folding of outer membrane proteins in Gram-negative bacteria relies on their delivery to the β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) complex. The mechanism by which survival protein A (SurA), the major periplasmic chaperone, facilitates this process is not well understood. We determine the structure of the holo insertase complex, where SurA binds BAM for substrate Gram-negative bacteria have a highly evolved cell wall with two membranes constituting a cell envelope consisting of an inner membrane (IM), a periplasmic space, and an outer membrane (OM).
