Evidence that a chaperone-usher-like pathway of Myxococcus xanthus functions in spore coat formation.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Jul 2011

Leng Xiaoyan, Zhu Wei, Jin Jing, Mao Xiaohua

Abstract excerpt

Many bacteria use the chaperone-usher (CU) secretion pathway to assemble on their surfaces typical or atypical fimbrial organelles. Four consecutive genes of Myxococcus xanthus DK1622, MXAN3885-3882, were predicted to constitute an operon encoding a CU-like system involved in the assembly of the spore coat; however, experimental evidence supporting this hypothesis was lacking. In this study, co-transcription of...
