A new paradigm for outer membrane protein biogenesis in the Bacteroidota

A new paradigm for outer membrane protein biogenesis in the Bacteroidota

Bacterial strains and growth conditions All strains and plasmids used in this work are listed in Supplementary Tables 2 and 3. F. johnsoniae was routinely cultured aerobically in Casitone yeast extract (CYE) medium45 at 30 °C with shaking. For some physiological studies the cells were cultured in PY2 medium46 as indicated below. For experiments testing growth on complex sugars cells were …
