Structural insight into archaic and alternative chaperone-usher pathways reveals a novel mechanism of pilus biogenesis

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Natalia Pakharukova and collaborators from the Editor:, University of London, United Kingdom have published the paper: Structural Insight into Archaic and Alternative Chaperone-Usher Pathways Reveals a Novel Mechanism of Pilus Biogenesis, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of November/20,/2015
  • what: The authors report atomic-resolution the structure and of Acinetobacter baumannii Csu and Escherichia coli ECP biofilm-mediating pili. The authors show that the two non-classical systems are structurally related but their assembly mechanism is strikingly different from the classical assembly pathway. The study shows that subunits from non-classical systems are . . .
