Conformational dynamics of the Bam complex. BamA cycles between two different conformations that involve movement of the conserved L6. Interconversion between the protease-resistant, Mal-PEG inaccessible form (BamAR) and the protease-sensitive, Mal-PEG accessible form (BamAS) is regulated by BamDE. In strains carrying gain-of-function bamDR197L and loss-of-function ΔbamE mutations, the equilibrium is shifted to the right.
