1n12 | pdb_00001n12

Crystal structure of the PapE (N-terminal-deleted) pilus subunit bound to a peptide corresponding to the N-terminal extension of the PapK pilus subunit (residues 1-11) from uropathogenic E. coli

Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.87Å Ligands: MSE Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function PAPE_ECOLX Repeated PapE subunits make up the thin (2 nm in diameter) tip fibrillum of the pilus. Subunits are arranged in a open helical conformation. Pili with a defective papE gene have low adhesive capacity or none; however, the binding property of the whole cell is not affected. Pili are polar filaments radiating from the surface of the bacterium to a length of 0.5-1.5 micrometers and numbering 100-300 per cell, and enable bacteria to colonize the epithelium of specific host organs.
