Structural highlights
FunctionSURA_ECOLI Chaperone involved in the correct folding and assembly of outer membrane proteins, such as OmpA, OmpF and LamB. Recognizes specific patterns of aromatic residues and the orientation of their side chains, which are found more frequently in integral outer membrane proteins. May act in both early periplasmic and late outer membrane-associated steps of protein maturation. Essential for the survival of E.coli in stationary phase. Required for pilus biogenesis.[1] [2] [3] [4] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf.
