Acinetobacter baylyi regulates type IV pilus synthesis by employing two extension motors and a motor protein inhibitor

Type IV pili (T4P) are retractile appendages used by bacteria for DNA uptake and other purposes. T4P extension is thought to occur through the action of a single motor protein, PilB. Here, Ellison et al. show that T4P synthesis in Acinetobacter baylyi depends not only on PilB but also on an addition...
