Mechanisms of outer membrane protein folding : effects of the lipid environment and periplasmic chaperones
In contrast with the wealth of information on the folding of soluble, cytosolic proteins, little is known about the folding of integral membrane proteins. The outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Gram-negative bacteria have a β-barrel structure and are essential for cell survival. The mechanisms of OMP...
