OmpA monomer interactions with PGN. (A) A snapshot depicts the end of one of the simulations of the OmpA monomer (blue) in the presence of BLP (green), highlighting the interactions of the CTD with the PGN network (red). Given here are residues involved in PGN contacts illustrated in van der Waals representation. (B) Shown here is the minimum distance between OmpA CTD and the PGN network for all four simulations of OmpA monomer with BLP. (C) Given here is the distance between the PGN network and the OM measured along the z axis between the centers of geometry of the PGN sugar strands and the phosphorus atoms on the lower leaflet of the OM. This is averaged over all four independent simulations and the error bars indicate SDs. To see this figure in color, go online.
