Publication Abstract from PubMed Deinococcus radiodurans is an atypical diderm bacterium with a remarkable ability to tolerate various environmental stresses, due in part to its complex cell envelope encapsulated within a hyperstable surface layer (S-layer). Despite decades of research on this cell envelope, atomic structural details of the S-layer have remained obscure. In this study, we report the electron cryomicroscopy structure of the D. radiodurans S-layer, showing how it is formed by the Hexagonally Packed Intermediate-layer (HPI) protein arranged in a planar hexagonal lattice. The HPI protein forms an array of immunoglobulin-like folds within the S-layer, with each monomer extending into the adjacent hexamer, resulting in a highly interconnected, stable, sheet-like arrangement. Using electron cryotomography and subtomogram averaging from focused ion beam-milled D. radiodurans cells, we have obtained a structure of the cellular S-layer, showing how this HPI S-layer coats native membranes on the surface of cells. Our S-layer structure from the diderm bacterium D. radiodurans shows similarities to immunoglobulin-like domain-containing S-layers from monoderm bacteria and archaea, highlighting common features in cell surface organization across different domains of life, with connotations on the evolution of immunoglobulin-based molecular recognition systems in eukaryotes. Interdigitated immunoglobulin arrays form the hyperstable surface layer of the extremophilic bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans.,von Kugelgen A, van Dorst S, Yamashita K, Sexton DL, Tocheva EI, Murshudov G, Alva V, Bharat TAM Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2023 Apr 18;120(16):e2215808120. doi: , 10.1073/pnas.2215808120.
