A periplasmic phospholipase that maintains outer membrane lipid asymmetry in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Randi L. Guest et al.

Summary: The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is unique and important for its structural and functional characteristics. The lipid asymmetry creates mechanical strength and lowers membrane permeability. The Mla pathway is responsible for removing mislocalized glycerophospholipids from the outer membrane. Pseudomonas aeruginosa has two proteins, PA2800 and PA3239, of the MlaA family.

Plasmalogens in bacteria, sixty years on

Howard Goldfine

Summary: The presence of plasmalogens in bacteria has been confirmed to be derived from diacyl lipids through the conversion by reductase genes. These genes are widely distributed in anaerobic and some facultatively anaerobic bacteria. Plasmalogens evolved early and persist in living organisms, suggesting their fundamental role.

Inactivation of the Mla system and outer-membrane phospholipase A results in disrupted outer-membrane lipid asymmetry and hypervesiculation in Bordetella pertussis

Eline F. de Jonge et al.

Summary: This study reveals for the first time the mechanism of maintaining lipid asymmetry in the outer membrane of Bordetella pertussis. Inactivation of MlaF and OMPLA leads to accumulation of PLs in the outer leaflet of the outer membrane, resulting in increased vesiculation, which could be useful in the development of novel pertussis vaccines.

Structure and lipid dynamics in the maintenance of lipid asymmetry inner membrane complex of A. baumannii

Daniel Mann et al.

Summary: This study presents a high-resolution structure of the maintenance of lipid asymmetry inner membrane complex (MlaBDEF) in the Gram-negative pathogen, Acinetobacter baumannii, shedding light on the secondary structure elements of MlaE helices and potential lipid dynamics by the MLA system. These findings may inform the development of future therapeutics against A. baumannii infection.

Plasmalogen Biosynthesis by Anaerobic Bacteria: Identification of a Two-Gene Operon Responsible for Plasmalogen Production in Clostridium perfringens

David R. Jackson et al.

Summary: Plasmalogens, vinyl ether-containing lipids, can be produced by both mammals and bacteria. While the aerobic biosynthetic pathway is known, a new anaerobic pathway for plasmalogen production has been discovered in the bacterium Clostridium perfringens. Heterologous expression of the pis operon from C. perfringens in E. coli resulted in the production of plasmalogens, indicating the potential for application in biotechnology.

Structural insights into outer membrane asymmetry maintenance in Gram-negative bacteria by MlaFEDB

Xiaodi Tang et al.

Summary: The Mla complex in Escherichia coli mediates ATP-dependent retrograde transport of phospholipids, maintaining the asymmetric outer membrane lipid structure in Gram-negative bacteria. This research provides mechanistic insights into the Mla pathway, which may have implications for antimicrobial drug development.

ATP disrupts lipid-binding equilibrium to drive retrograde transport critical for bacterial outer membrane asymmetry

Wen-Yi Low et al.

Summary: The study utilized an in vitro lipid transfer assay to reveal the mechanism of lipid transfer between MlaC and MlaFEDB, showing that MlaC transfers PLs to the IM transporter in an MlaD-dependent manner and can be enhanced through ATP hydrolysis. Additionally, MlaD is crucial for modulating the coupling between ATP hydrolysis and retrograde PL transfer.

YhdP, TamB, and YdbH Are Redundant but Essential for Growth and Lipid Homeostasis of the Gram-Negative Outer Membrane

Natividad Ruiz et al.

Summary: The process of transporting phospholipids to the outer membrane in Gram-negative bacteria, an essential step in envelope biogenesis, remains unclear. Through studying the AsmA-like clan in Escherichia coli, it was found that YhdP and its homologs TamB and YdbH play important roles in maintaining lipid homeostasis and growth in the outer membrane. These proteins are proposed to be the long-sought-after phospholipid transporters essential for outer membrane biogenesis.

A rooted phylogeny resolves early bacterial evolution

Gareth A. Coleman et al.

Summary: Rooted bacterial tree is essential for understanding early evolution, with most gene families showing evidence of horizontal gene transfer. The last bacterial common ancestor is suggested to be a flagellated, rod-shaped double-membraned organism. Contrary to recent proposals, the Candidate Phyla Radiation is not placed at the base, but branches sister to Chloroflexota within Terrabacteria.

Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold

John Jumper et al.

Summary: Proteins are essential for life, and accurate prediction of their structures is a crucial research problem. Current experimental methods are time-consuming, highlighting the need for accurate computational approaches to address the gap in structural coverage. Despite recent progress, existing methods fall short of atomic accuracy in protein structure prediction.
