Cyclic Enterobacterial Common Antigen Maintains the Outer Membrane Permeability Barrier of Escherichia coli in a Manner Controlled by YhdP
Gram-negative bacteria have an outer membrane (OM) impermeable to many toxic compounds that can be further strengthened during stress. In Enterobacteriaceae, the envelope contains enterobacterial common antigen (ECA), a carbohydrate-derived moiety conserved throughout Enterobacteriaceae, the functio...
