Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2018 Jun;
115(28):E6614-E6621.
PMID: 29941590
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria forms a robust permeability barrier that blocks entry of toxins and antibiotics. Most OM proteins (OMPs) assume a β-barrel fold, and some form...

198(4):720-30.
PMID: 26668263
Unlabelled: While SecA is the ATPase component of the major bacterial secretory (Sec) system, mycobacteria and some Gram-positive pathogens have a second paralog, SecA2. In bacteria with two SecA paralogs,...

195(19):4456-65.
PMID: 23913320
All bacteria use the conserved Sec pathway to transport proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane, with the SecA ATPase playing a central role in the process. Mycobacteria are part of a...
