Atomic Resolution Insights into Curli Fiber Biogenesis

Atomic Resolution Insights into Curli Fiber Biogenesis

Bacteria produce functional amyloid fibers called curli in a controlled, noncytotoxic manner. These extracellular fimbriae enable biofilm formation and promote pathogenicity. Understanding curli biogenesis is important for appreciating microbial lifestyles and will offer clues as to how disease-asso...
