BamA Protein, E.coli (Myc, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

BamA is a key member of the outer membrane protein assembly complex (Bam), which concentrates the assembly of β-barrel proteins into the outer membrane. Together with BamD, BamA forms the core mechanism of this process, which relies on the coordinated action of all five subunits. BamA Protein, E.coli (Myc, His) is the recombinant E. coli-derived BamA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-10*His, C-Myc labeled tag.

Description

BamA is a key member of the outer membrane protein assembly complex (Bam), which concentrates the assembly of β-barrel proteins into the outer membrane. Together with BamD, BamA forms the core mechanism of this process, which relies on the coordinated action of all five subunits. BamA Protein, E.coli (Myc, His) is the recombinant E. coli-derived BamA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-10*His, C-Myc labeled tag.

Background

BamA, a pivotal component of the outer membrane protein assembly complex (Bam), plays a central role in the intricate process of assembling and inserting beta-barrel proteins into the outer membrane. Together with BamD, BamA constitutes the core machinery of this assembly process, and the efficient folding and insertion of substrates into the outer membrane require the coordinated action of all five subunits. BamA's structural features include a beta-barrel with a lateral gate that opens between the first and last strands, facilitating the insertion of substrates into the outer membrane. Acting as a receptor for CdiA-EC93, the contact-dependent growth inhibition effector of E.coli strain EC93, BamA is crucial in mediating this microbial interaction. Notably, its susceptibility to CdiA-EC93 is dependent on the specific BamA variant present, as replacing BamA with homologs from different bacterial strains alters susceptibility. Additionally, BamA's role in CDI appears independent of other components of the Bam complex.
