Insights into the complex formation of a trimeric autotransporter adhesin with a peptidoglycan-binding periplasmic protein
2023-12-21
Abstract excerpt
Trimeric autotransporter adhesins (TAAs) are outer membrane (OM) proteins that are widely distributed in gram-negative bacteria and are involved primarily in adhesion to biotic and abiotic surfaces, cell agglutination, and biofilm formation. TAAs consist of a passenger domain, which is secreted onto the cell surface, and a transmembrane domain, which forms a pore in the OM to secrete and anchor the passenger domai...
