Crystal structure of LapB from Klebsiella pneumoniae

Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedLabB (YciM) is a key regulator of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis in Gram-negative bacteria, modulating LpxC degradation to maintain outer membrane integrity. While E. coli LabB (ecLabB) forms a closed-ring dimer via TPR motifs, the crystal structure of Klebsiella pneumoniae LabB (kpLabB) reveals a distinct open-ring dimeric architecture, generated by TPR motif sliding. This alternative conformation suggests a potential mechanism for dynamic regulation and partner interactions. Structural analysis of LabB from Klebsiella pneumoniae reveals an alternative dimeric conformation generated by the sliding of TPR motifs.,Jung KH, Lee SY, Park SE, Kang YW, Park HH Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2025 Aug 15;775:152151. doi: , 10.1016/j.bbrc.2025.152151.
