Identification of an Additional Minor Pilin Essential for Piliation in the Archaeon Methanococcus maripaludis
Methanococcus maripaludis is an archaeon with two studied surface appendages, archaella and type IV-like pili. Previously, the major structural pilin was identified as MMP1685 and three additional proteins were designated as minor pilins (EpdA, EpdB and EpdC). All of the proteins are likely process...
