Periplasm homeostatic regulation maintains spatial constraints essential for cell envelope processes and cell viability

E. Mandela, C. J. Stubenrauch, D. Ryoo, H. Hwang, E. J. Cohen, V. V. L. Torres, P. Deo, C. T. Webb, C. Huang, R. B. Schittenhelm, M. Beeby, J. C. Gumbart, T. Lithgow, I. D. Hay

This study shows that elongated Lpp in E. coli counteracts periplasmic enlargement through homeostatic mechanisms involving Lpp tilting and abundance reduction, impacting cell envelope processes and viability.
