Abstract excerpt
S-layer deletion mutants of Thermus thermophilus HB8 overproduce a regular array which surrounds groups of several cells. Averages of two-dimensional projections revealed a detailed architecture similar in general morphology and unit cell dimensions to that of the S-layer but having a different mass distribution. The structural components of these "S-layer-like arrays" are a group of three proteins of 52 (P52),...
