A targeted boost-and-sort immunization strategy using Escherichia coli BamA identifies rare growth inhibitory antibodies

Abstract Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) in Gram-negative bacteria are essential for a number of cellular functions including nutrient transport and drug efflux. Escherichia coli BamA is an essential component of the OMP β-barrel assembly machinery and a potential novel antibacterial target that has...
