Using multiple cryo-EM structures, we revealed how the periplasmic chaperone SurA dynamically changes its conformation to deliver substrates to the BAM complex.

The complex between a bacteriophage peptide and the essential membrane protein MurJ — Part II
Both SglPP7 and LysM inhibit MurJ, but through distinct binding modes — a striking case of convergent evolution.

Our MurJ/LysM paper has been published in Science Advances.
Kohga et al., Sci. Adv. (2025).
This study elucidates, through cryo-electron microscopy, the mechanism by which the small bacteriophage-derived protein LysM inhibits the lipid II flippase MurJ.
