The structures of two archaeal type IV pili illuminate evolutionary relationships

Archaeal type IV pili (T4P) mediate adhesion to surfaces and are receptors for hyperthermophilic archaeal viruses. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of two archaeal T4P from Pyrobaculum arsenaticum and Saccharolobus solfataricus and discuss evolutionary relationships between bacterial...
