Antibacterial macrocyclic peptides reveal a distinct mode of BamA inhibition

Abstract Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) produced by Gram-negative bacteria contain a cylindrical amphipathic β-sheet (“β-barrel”) that functions as a membrane spanning domain. The assembly (folding and membrane insertion) of OMPs is mediated by the heterooligomeric β-barrel assembly machine (BAM). T...
