ExbB is essential for TonB-dependent energy transduction as the absence of ExbB prevents TonB responding to the proton motive force, as well as the change of the high-affinity association of TonB for the outer membrane to the cytoplasmic membrane. <ref name='Held'>PMID: 12193634</ref> | ExbB is essential for TonB-dependent energy transduction as the absence of ExbB prevents TonB responding to the proton motive force, as well as the change of the high-affinity association of TonB for the outer membrane to the cytoplasmic membrane. <ref name='Held'>PMID: 12193634</ref> | ||
