Inter-domain dynamics in the chaperone SurA and multi-site binding to its outer membrane protein clients

The chaperone SurA is involved in outer membrane protein (OMP) biogenesis in Gram-negative bacteria, but its mechanism of action is not fully understood. Combining mass spectrometric, biophysical and computational approaches, the authors here show how the conformational dynamics of SurA facilitate O...
