Structural insight has been gained into the 53 bacterial Ig-like (BIg) domains of SiiE, which account for 94% of the entire SiiE sequence. The crystal structure of a fragment comprising BIg domains 50 to 52 of SiiE reveals the BIg domain architecture and highlights two types of SiiE-specific Ca(2+)-binding sites. Sequence homology considerations suggest that full-length SiiE interacts with more than 100 Ca(2+) ions. Molecular dynamics simulations and single-molecule imaging indicate that Ca(2+) binding confers SiiE with a rigid 200 nm rod-like habitus that is required to reach out beyond the Salmonella lipopolysaccharide layer and to promote adhesion to host cells. The crystal structure suggests plausible routes for the establishment of the initial contact between Salmonella and host cells.
