Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 3.154Å Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function PAPC_ECOLX Involved in the export and assembly of pili subunits across the outer membrane. Forms a hexameric ring-shaped pore in the outer bacterial membrane. The 2 nanometer-diameter pore allows the passage of the thin tip fibrillum. As for the rod, it probably unwinds into linear fibers which would therefore be narrow enough to pass through the pore. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
