An evolutionarily conserved glycine-tyrosine motif forms a folding core in outer membrane proteins.
An intimate interaction between a pair of amino acids, a tyrosine and glycine on neighboring β-strands, has been previously reported to be important for the structural stability of autotransporters. Here, we show that the conservation of this interacting pair extends to nearly all major families of...
