The molecular mechanism of the type IVa pilus motors
Bacterial type IVa pili are protein filaments used for motility and protein secretion. Here the authors present crystal structures of theGeobacter metallireducensPilB ATPase in two nucleotide states, and suggest a clockwise rotation of the central sub-pores of PilB that would support the assembly of...
