Periplasmic mechano-transduction networks

Unlike the inner-membrane, the outer-membrane of Gram-negative bacteria cannot be energised by a proton gradient and the periplasmic space is absent of ATP. This poses a significant problem for active processes such as transport against concentration gradients. TonB-dependent transporters (TBDT) are...
