The structure of the Tad pilus alignment complex reveals a periplasmic conduit for pilus extension

Abstract The Tad (Tight adherence) pilus is a bacterial appendage implicated in virulence, cell-cell aggregation, and biofilm formation. Despite its homology to the well-characterised Type IV pilus, the structure and assembly mechanism of the Tad pilus are poorly understood. Here, we investigate the...
