Abstract
The protein AlkL is known to increase permeability of the outer membrane of bacteria for hydrophobic molecules, yet the mechanism of transport has not been determined. Differing crystal and NMR structures of homologous proteins resulted in a controversy regarding the degree of structure and the role of long extracellular loops. Here we solve this controversy by determining the de novo NMR structure in near-native lipid bilayers, and by accessing structural dynamics relevant to hydrophobic substrate permeation through molecular-dynamics simulations and by characteristic NMR relaxation parameters. Dynamic lateral exit sites large enough to accommodate substrates such as carvone or octane occur through restructuring of a barrel extension formed by the extracellular loops.

Lipid bilayer-bound conformation of an integral membrane beta barrel protein by multidimensional MAS NMR
Abstract
The human voltage dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC) is a 32Â*kDa β-barrel integral membrane protein that controls the transport of ions across the outer mitochondrial membrane. Despite the determination of VDAC solution and diffraction structures, a structural basis for the mechanism of its function is not yet fully understood. Biophysical studies suggest VDAC requires a lipid bilayer to achieve full function, motivating the need...
