The organization of cells into membrane-bound compartments is fundamental to life, requiring proteins to cross these barriers through highly specialized translocation systems. Understanding these pro…

Nature Communications - The asymmetric distribution of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the surface of the bacterial outer membrane is essential and crucial for antibiotic resistance. Here, authors...

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) assembly at the surfaces-exposed leaflet of the bacterial outer membrane (OM) is mediated by the OM LPS translocon. An essential transmembrane beta-barrel protein, LptD, and a...
