Structural biology: Proteobacterial accessories for diverse cellulose synthesis

Research output: Contribution to journal › Comment/debate

Abstract

BcsD is broadly present throughout Proteobacteria and is predicted to contribute to cellulose crystallinity via interaction with BcsH. However, new work shows that, in non-crystalline forming Proteobacteria, BcsD contains an amino-terminal a1-helix, forms a tetrahedron-like structure, and interacts with alternative proline-rich protein partners.
