DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.525
Abstract: In gram‐negative bacteria, the ABC transporter LolCDE complex translocates outer membrane‐specific lipoproteins (Lpp) from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Lpp possessing aspartate (Asp) at position +2 are not translocated because it functions as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.chemrev.1c00773
Abstract: The peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall is an extra-cytoplasmic glycopeptide polymeric structure that protects bacteria from osmotic lysis and determines cellular shape. Since the cell wall surrounds the cytoplasmic membrane, bacteria must add new material to… read more here.
