Dynamics of light-induced activation in the PAS domain proteins LOV2 and PYP probed by time-resolved tryptophan fluorescence.

abstract：:BamA is an essential component of the β-barrel assembly machine (BAM) that is responsible for insertion and folding of β-barrel outer membrane proteins (OMPs) in Gram-negative bacteria. BamA is an OMP itself, and its β-barrel transmembrane domain is thought to catalyze OMP insertion and folding, although the molecular...
