Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: CS6 is a common colonization factor expressed by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli It is a two-subunit protein consisting of CssA and CssB in an equal stoichiometry, assembled via the chaperone-usher pathway into an afimbrial, oligomeric assembly on the bacterial cell surface. A recent structural study has predicted the involvement of the N- and C-terminal regions of the CS6 subunits in its assembly....
