Conformational Plasticity of LptC Regulates Lipopolysaccharide Transport by the LptB2FGC Complex
The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is coated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The Lpt system generates membrane asymmetry by transporting LPS from the inner to the outer membrane. Transport be...

Very happy to Share that my First paper has been uploaded on bioRxiv 🥳 This was a large team effort together with Jagdeep! We took the next steps into understanding how lipopolysaccharides are transported by the LptB2FGC complex with NMR🧲

Proud to share this great story is out now! A huge Thank You to the whole team but especially to my co-first author Janina Stautz. The results were often surprising but we managed to unpuzzle how a short IDR and its membrane interaction are involved in channel opening.
This took us a while and I am all the happier it is finally out! I thought that simply adding ATP to purified potassium channel KtrAB should be sufficient to stabilize its active state. I was so wrong...
Read the full story on how an IDR facilitates channel opening upon membrane interaction.
A short intrinsically disordered region at KtrB’s N-terminus facilitates allosteric regulation of K+ channel KtrAB
Nature Communications - KtrAB is a major potassium uptake system that has been linked to the pathogenesis of many infectious bacteria. Here the authors show that KtrB from Vibrio alginolyticus...

I‘m happy that i could share my project on this years #ABC2025😊
After a great talk from Agatha Tymczak from Voula Kanelis lab using solution NMR on SUR1, @aklausnitzer.bsky.social presenting now on the power of solid-state NMR to study ABC transporters! #ABC2025
And chair Maki Tsujita keeping everyone on time 😅

Hello Bluesky, excited to be here🌟 For my first post, I wanted to share our recent collaboration, which I was very happy to contribute to. Our findings indicate that Camalexin could serve as a promising scaffold for developing potent inhibitors against AcrB. Have a read here: doi.org/10.1016/j.bi...
