Abstract The ATP-independent chaperone SurA protects unfolded outer membrane proteins (OMPs) from aggregation in the periplasm of Gram-negative bacteria, and delivers them to the β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) for folding into the outer membrane

Colicins are protein antibiotics synthesised by Escherichia coli strains to target and kill related bacteria. To prevent host suicide, colicins are inactivated by binding to immunity proteins. Despite their high avidity (K(d) ≈ fM, lifetime ≈ 4 d

Abstract Fibrous networks constructed from high aspect ratio protein building blocks are ubiquitous in nature. Despite this ubiquity, the functional advantage of such building blocks over globular proteins is not understood. To answer this question,

The authors of this work characterize the effect of amino acid substitution on α-synuclein (α-Syn) aggregation. Residues 38 and 42 (in addition to 39) within the P1 region of α-Syn affect amyloid formation. The effect of substitution at position 3

Interaction of the outer membrane protein (OMP) chaperone SurA and the OMP folding catalyst BAM results in changes in the conformational ensembles of both species, suggesting a mechanism for delivery of OMPs to BAM in Gram-negative bacteria.

Through a multi-modal rheology approach, we show that muscle-inspired hydrogels exhibit a surprising diversity of viscoelastic response from power-law rheology at low strains to stiffening and energy dissipation at high strains.

Abstract The cell envelope is essential for the survival of Gram-negative bacteria. This specialised membrane is densely packed with outer membrane proteins (OMPs), which perform a variety of functions. How OMPs fold into this crowded environment rem

Hierarchical assemblies of proteins exhibit a wide-range of material properties that are exploited both in nature and by artificially by humankind. However, little is understood about the importance of protein unfolding on the network assembly, sever
