P. aeruginosa PilT structures with and without nucleotide reveal a dynamic Type IV pilus retraction motor

Type IV pili are bacterial extracellular filaments that can be retracted to create force and motility. The retraction is accomplished by the motor protein PilT. Crystal structures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PilT with and without bound AMP-PCP have been solved at 2.6 and 3.1 Å resolution, respectively...
