Biogenesis of β-barrel membrane proteins in bacteria and eukaryotes: evolutionary conservation and divergence (2009, background): “coli, BamA, was found to form a complex with four lipoproteins, designated BamB– E (formerly YfgL, NlpB, YfiO, and SmpA, respectively) [36, 38] (Fig.”
Predicting Functionally Informative Mutations in Escherichia coli BamA Using Evolutionary Covariance Analysis (2013, methodology): “Intragenic suppressor (plasmid-linked) mutations were mapped by puri ﬁ cation and retransformation of the pBamA D740G plasmid into JCM320, and the causative mutations were identi ﬁ ed by DNA sequencing.”
Characterization of Six Lipoproteins in the σE Regulon (2005, background): “YaeT is required for insertion of -barrel proteins, including outer membrane porins, into the outer membrane (39, 50).”
The bacterial cell envelope. (2010, background): “This complex is composed of a large b-barrel protein, BamA (aka YaeT or Omp85), and four lipoproteins, BamBCDE (aka YfgL, NlpB, YfiO, and SmpA respectively) (Wu et al. 2005; Sklar et al. 2007).”
