Braun's lipoprotein , found in some gram-negative cell walls, is one of the most abundant membrane proteins; its molecular weight is about 7.2 kDa. It is bound at its C-terminal end by a covalent bond to the peptidoglycan layer and is embedded in the outer membrane by its hydrophobic head. BLP tightly links the two layers and provides structural integrity to the outer membrane.
