Polar assembly of the type IV pilus secretin in Myxococcus xanthus

Summary The type IV pilus filament of Myxococcus xanthus penetrates the outer membrane through a gated channel – the PilQ secretin. Assembly of the channel and formation of PilQ multimeric complexes that resist disassembly in heated detergent is correlated with the release of a 50 kDa fragment of Pi...
