摘要

In Gram-negative bacteria like Escherichia coli the ExbB-ExbD-TonB protein complex isnanchored to the cytoplasmic membrane and is involved in energization of outer membrane transport. Outernmembrane proteins catalyze energy-coupled transport of scarce nutrients. Energy is derived from thenprotonmotive force of the cytoplasmic membrane which is transferred through ExbB-ExbD-TonB tonthe outer membrane transporters. Earlier studies showed that ExbB is the most abundant protein of thenExbB-ExbD-TonB complex and stabilizes TonB and ExbD. To advance understanding of the role of ExbBnin the membrane organization of the ExbB-ExbD-TonB complex, His-tagged ExbB was solubilized withndecyl maltoside and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. Its size and shape were determined by bluennative gel electrophoresis, size exclusion chromatography, transmission electronmicroscopy, and small-anglenX-ray scattering. Decyl maltoside bound to ExbB was quantified by the anthrone method that determinesnthe sugar moiety of decyl maltoside. The results obtained with the four methods consistently indicated thatnisolated ExbB adopts a stable homooligomer with four to six monomers. We propose that the ExbBnhomooligomer forms a platform on which ExbD and TonB are assembled to form the energy-transducingncomplex in the cytoplasmic membrane.
