Function

(Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for CdiA-EC93, the contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) effector of E.coli strain EC93; antibodies against extracellular epitopes decrease CDI. Its role in CDI is independent of the other Bam complex components. Is not the receptor for CdiA from E.coli strain 536 / UPEC, which does not have the same mode of toxicity as CdiA from strain EC93; the decreased expression of bamA101 in some experiments decreases the level of outer membrane proteins in general.

Biological Context

Function

(Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for CdiA-EC93, the contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) effector of E.coli strain EC93; antibodies against extracellular epitopes decrease CDI. Its role in CDI is independent of the other Bam complex components (PubMed:18761695). Is not the receptor for CdiA from E.coli strain 536 / UPEC, which does not have the same mode of toxicity as CdiA from strain EC93; the decreased expression of bamA101 in some experiments decreases the level of outer membrane proteins in general (PubMed:23469034, PubMed:23882017). Susceptibility to CdiA-EC93 is dependent on E.coli BamA; replacing BamA with the gene from S.typhimurium LT2, E.cloacae ATCC 13047 or D.dadantii 3937 renders cells resistant to CdiA-EC93. Cells with BamA from another bacteria no longer form CdiA-EC93-induced aggregates with EC93 cells. A chimera in which E.cloacae extracellular loops 6 and 7 are replaced with loops 6 and 7 from E.coli is susceptible to CdiA-EC93 and to CdiA-CT from strain 536 / UPEC (PubMed:23882017)

Subcellular Location

Cell outer membrane

Subunit

Part of the Bam complex, which is composed of the outer membrane protein BamA, and four lipoproteins BamB, BamC, BamD and BamE. BamA interacts directly with BamB and the BamCDE subcomplex. The Bam complex has the shape of a hat, with the BamA beta-barrel crown in the outer membrane and the periplasmic brim formed by the BamA POTRA domains and the 4 lipoproteins (PubMed:26744406, PubMed:26900875, PubMed:26901871, PubMed:27686148)
