BonA from Acinetobacter baumannii forms a divisome-localized decamer that supports outer envelope function

R. Grinter, F. C. Morris, R. A. Dunstan, P. M. Leung, M. Belousoff, S. D. Gunasinghe, S. Beckham, A. Y. Peleg, C. Greening, J. Li, E. Heinz, T. Lithgow

This study identifies BonA as an outer membrane protein in Acinetobacter baumannii that forms a transient decamer, supports outer envelope function, and is involved in cell division and motility.

BamA and BamD are essential for the secretion of trimeric autotransporter adhesins

J. Rooke, C. Icke, T. J. Wells, A. E. Rossiter, D. F. Browning, F. C. Morris, J. Leo, M. S. Schuetz, I. B. Autenrieth, A. F. Cunningham, D. Linke, I. R. Henderson

This study shows that BamA and BamD are essential for secreting trimeric autotransporters, while BamB, C, E, TamA, and TamB are not required for this process.

Structure-function characterization of the conserved regulatory mechanism of the Escherichia coli M48 metalloprotease BepA

J. A. Bryant, I. T. Cadby, Z.-S. Chong, Y. R. Sevastsyanovich, F. C. Morris, A. F. Cunningham, G. Kritikos, R. W. Meek, M. Banzhaf, S.-S. Chng, A. L. Lovering, I. R. Henderson

The paper presents the crystal structure of E. coli BepA, an M48 metalloprotease, and shows that its active site plug regulates function and is conserved across the family.

Bacteriophages targeting Acinetobacter baumannii capsule induce antimicrobial resensitization

F. L. Gordillo Altamirano, J. H. Forsyth, R. Patwa, X. Kostoulias, M. Trim, D. Subedi, S. Archer, F. C. Morris, C. Oliveira, L. Kielty, D. Korneev, M. K. O'Bryan, T. L. Lithgow, A. Y. Peleg, J. J. Barr

This study identifies phages targeting Acinetobacter baumannii capsule that induce antimicrobial resensitization by disrupting capsule biosynthesis and enhancing susceptibility to antibiotics and the immune system.
