Proton-Dependent Gating and Proton Uptake by Wzx Support O-Antigen-Subunit Antiport Across the Bacterial Inner Membrane

ABSTRACT Wzx flippases are crucial for bacterial cell surface polysaccharide assembly as they transport undecaprenyl pyrophosphate-linked sugar repeat units from the cytoplasmic to the periplasmic leaflets of the inner membrane (IM) for final assembly. Our recently reported three-dimensional (3D) mo...
