PilY1 regulates the dynamic architecture of the type IV pilus machine in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Abstract Type IV pili (T4P) produced by the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa play a pivotal role in adhesion, surface motility, biofilm formation, and infection in humans. Despite the significance of T4P as a potential therapeutic target, key details of their dynamic assembly and underlying molecular...
