Bacterial AsmA Proteins Transfer Glycerophospholipids Between Membranes in Vitro

Gram-negative bacteria are surrounded by inner and outer membranes whose glycerophospholipid building blocks are synthesized in the inner membrane and redistributed to the outer membrane by poorly understood mechanisms. In eukaryotes, bridge-like lipid transfer proteins (BLTPs) transfer glycerophospholipids between mem...
